So I have a Sterling by Music Man Stingray 5 (the Cheap one) And to be honest i actually Love the way it plays and sounds *for the most part... My only complaint is that the pickup/Preamp is absolutely the LOUDEST I have ever heard, to the point of making it difficult to switch between basses. Yes I know I can turn the volume down on the bass but...TBH I just dont want to deal with that. Has anyone else had a similar experience with these? If so Did you swap out the Preamp / Pickup?
