hey..has anyone tried the musicman SUB? isit good? and how is it compared to the stingray?

is it good? yes.

how is it against a Stingray? the SUB isn't a stingray, it just happens to look like one. these 2 has different offerings, one isn't the substitute for another.

 

[kreed]

but ard how much is one?

 

[wraith]

Well, if you're looking for a bass that sounds good, looks good, and won't blow a hole in your wallet, then the sub is a bass which will fill all those categories.

But if you're looking for something to sound like a stingray, then save up for the stingray, cuz there truly is no substitute for a stingray.

 

[kreed]

since you've said that..could u tell me the price range for both?

 

[jbarks]

SUB bass is ~$1000
Stingray is usually $2000 off the local 2nd-hand market.











Mad-modded OLP 'ray bass is $1000 and should nail the Stingray vibe closely enough Of course, there's nothing like an actual MM Ray. Construction and al the small things will come into play here.

 

[subversion]

SUB:

*Passive: $950
*Active: $1,050

 

[kreed]

woah..cool..sounds within my range of saving up!

 

[wraith]

Thats cool, let us know how it goes. You going for active or passive?

 

[GrayAkira]

May I ask, where in Singapore can I try out the bass? Kinda interested in Musicman SUB too and I wanna try it out and hear it myself. Is the shop in Parklane the only distributer for them?

 

[wraith]

You can try the sub basses at davis guitars.

 

[GrayAkira]

Eh? Got meh? Aren't those OLP? >_> Heh.. Well, I'll check them out this weekend..

 

[wraith]
