Wow, I played a Stingray 4HH in red PLS(Seemed like black cherry burst) clear PG at Long and Mcquade today. The thing is a monster, position 3, position 4.... Eden Rig. Kabam.

So..... I put it on lay-a-way. In hiding until Saturday.

Now here is where I call thee forumites. I think I might prefer a sterling. I generally like a thin neck, but the ray seemed comfy, it was a tad heavy, it had a maple board, it wasn't a LE, and it only had 4 strings :). Am I too picky?

I love the bass, but I might be a little trigger happy haha. I can't try a sterling, how much thinner is the neck? I want, I want.
 
That is a Limited Edition that you played. It's Pearl Redburst and only available at Long and McQuade.
 
Wait wait wait. Hey guys. What are we thinking?















PICS PLEASE
(but yeah you should still get it)
:D
 
So I think we've pretty much decided for you that you're buying this LE Stingray.

Then the only question becomes if you think you might like to try a Sterling, you can always get one later (in addition). You should try to find a Sterling to play to see if you like the neck & body shape.


This sounds too cool to pass up.
 
The Sterling neck isn't that much narrower, it's only 1/8" usually. The HH Stingray is an awesome bass.
 
Wow, thats insane... an LE for L&M only..... it is a BEAUTIFUL instrument guys.... no pics though unfourtunatly.... I'm sure you can find em online :).

It's a deep red, with a hint of burst, on a maple board with.... a clear pickgaurd.
 
now i have a question....

why?

why only for that store? are they a big retailer there or what?



i can only imagine....
 
they are the GC of canada, atleast western.... not nearly as big... but it is a large chain up here.
 
Hey MCBTunes, I'm in Canada too, I go to Long and Mcquades all the time, but haven't seen any new stingrays yet. What location did you play it at? I'm in Surrey, B.C. If you do get that bass please post pics, because If it is infact exclusive to L&M, i think (hope) i'll get one.
 
See, this is why we should annex Canada. They're getting cooler stuff than us now!

If we invade Canada @ 8:00 Am tomorr0w, we'll be set to take over Mexico by 8:15.
