NBD: Retro 70's EBMM Stingray

Thanks everyone! EBMM did get back to me, the pickup cover is glued on so I would have to replace the pickup to get the white one or do some surgery to get the original off. I'm going to keep it the way it is, I am very happy with the looks, sound and feel of this bass. The neck is perfect!!

I also put some Ernie Ball Cobalt Flats on this bass and I really love it.... just might be my new #1 :)

I put GHS Rounds on my EBMM Special and that bass also sounds great as well. Now I have a Stingray w/flats & rounds

That’s how you do it !! You gotta have one with flats and one with rounds . But EBMM Slinky Cobalt Flats are kinda in between.
So I’m giving you a legitimate excuse to get a 3rd with some thumpy vintage flats like Labella’s or TI Flats. And then of course there is short scale, and passive , and DarkRay, and Fretless , and H, and HH. ;)

Now you see how a lady like me ends up with 7 of these wonderful basses. 🤣
