Was in GC yesterday and tried out a few Stingrays acousticaly while waiting for an order to be processed (Classic, Ray34, and a standard Stingray).
Are the neck shapes the same for these instruments?
I'm referring to the width, thickness, and outer radius as the fretboard radius has never been that big a deal for me.
I had assumed that I would like the Classic best but thought that the standard Ray was closser to my 1983 and more to my liking. Will have to go back when it's quiet enough to really audition a bass as the sale had attracted a lot of potential buyers.
Another reminder (to me) that one should be open minded and not have pre-conceived ideas based on the internet without playing an instrument for themselves.
