I used to use Ernie Ball Flats Group III on a Classic Stingray 5 without any need for modifikation

Compared it to several of my Music Man basses.
The serial shown in your picture looks like E42759.
A sloppy stamp can make the body of a five look closed, like a six.
But the sixes curved upper...

Besides sound and esthetics theres a difference in ergonomics.
If you're not tall an play standing with a strapped bass, maybe the Big Al suits you better.
With the 25th/Reflex there's an about 3...

Lovely looking honeyburst hog body & creamy binding!

No neck dive with my 25th HH 5 maple neck. But the distance from your body to the nut & lower register is longer than with the other Musicman basses. Because the upper horn/strap button ist at the...

Well, at that point I expected you to continue the math until we get cash back choosing the piezo.
;)
Back to seriousness & topic: Thanks you for sharing your informations

I'm looking forward to the collateral damage of the next blinding attack ;)
Both, the PDN-Bongo & the roasted neck non matching headstock Bongo, are superb looking.

The biggest difference is between
- serial mode (the three pickup buttons up)
- and the single or parallel pickup modes
Connecting PUs in serial mode results in double voltage. That's a...

Congratulation! Hope you'll love it as I do. What color is it?

There is a significant difference in the neck witdth at the nut of the 4stringers.
Big Al's nut width is smaller (like a sterling) than the Reflex's (stingray-neck).

There shouldn't be any big...

That

And that. It will sound different to your Stingray, though.

But I'm sure it will match your
style perfectly

SSS. No doubt.

If I could have exactly two EBMM instruments and already would own a Big Al 5 SSS, I would get a Stingray Classic 4 as a second instrument to hold available THE classic AND the...

Another german, rosewood neck.
The angled surface of the upper body gives some fancy light effects...

That's what I would suggest, too. The Big Al H may give you the best H of your collection, but the SSS will give you something very new. It will not sound like a stingray or bongo, it's really...

The others not so much

The answer is yes.
(My Big Al SSS has tons of georgous sounds. But it does not offer the sound of a bridge-humbucker,
while my 25th does, that has the same pickup as the BigAL H.)

fantastisch!

Despite my dificulties with foreign language when it's up to describing sound impression I'd like to continue this thread, it's not that outdated :rolleyes:

As far as I know, the stingray preamp...

At least, questions 1 & 4 are not answered by a google or forum search. There are only few sources of informations and experiences with the Big AL 5 in the WWW.
All MM 5 String basses share the...

For me, that's the one-and-only classic Stingray.
I love that colour-pickguard-2EQ-flamed-maple-neck combination with a Ray.
