Details

I’ve gone back and forth on selling or trading. I’ve decided to sell as there are a couple basses I’m looking at going with.

The only possible trade is a partial one.

Trace Elliot Transit B pedal
Or maybe a very good lightweight combo or single cab and head.

This is the chance to own a one of a kind Ray!!


It’s well worth it with everything that was put into it.

I have here a beautiful 2005 Limited Edition Stingray 5 in butterscotch. The mods were done professionally. Just check out the upgrades this has! Nordy pre with Nordy Bigman pickups. On top of that it’s an active/passive Ray!


This is from the previous owner:

I've got a 2005 MM Stingray 5 HH LTD.


I sent it to Carey Nordstrand who had Mo put in 2 BigMan p/us and a 3 way Nordy pre.


Has pickup blend, VTC, 5 way coil select, sweepable mids, high/low boost. No routing was done


The pickups are the Nordstrand BigMan's - the bigman - Nordstrand Pickups


Pre is 3 way from Nordstrand - 3b preamp - Nordstrand Pickups


I wanted more versatility from the bass and Carey and Mo suggested these.


It has pickup blend as well as the 5 way coil selector. It also has a passive/active switch and sweepable mids. It has tone control for passive as well.


If you call Nordstrand and talk to Mo, he'll remember everything he did.


The bass has WAY more low end than a regular MM, but you can dial in the traditional tone as well as single out the back p/u for that signature MM sound.


But it also allows for a WAY smoother MM sound when you don't want it to be so mid-honking.


Bass is absolutely mint.


It has the OHSC with the blue protective tape on the latches. Rosewood board and it plays like a dream.

I guess my question was if the original electronics are available would you consider selling them separately or are they going with the bass?

As far as trades, throw any 5 string at me. Never know what will catch my interest. And I will listen to cash offers as well.
