- Made in USA (California)

- Lutherie to top

- A micro ceramic MM and 3-position selector

- Blue body and maple fingerboard



UTILIZATION


- It is very easy and pleasant to use (light, thin and fast neck, body small enough)

- Excellent balance between each string and all over the neck.

- It is more versatile than a Stingray with the 3-position selector.

- The pre-amp is also very effective.

SOUNDS


- Although it is much more versatile than Stingray H. Due to its sound signature (register
bass-midrange), it is for me (and it's a personal opinion), not suitable for all styles of music.
I use it mainly for rock, blues-rock and funk.

- The microwave ceramics (more medium than the Stingray, I think) is very effective.
In position 1, we get the GM's. In 2, is slightly closer to a jazz bass and 3 of accuracy
She excels in both slap, fingers only, the mediator.

- And she deserves, moreover, an amp at the height Ampeg style.


OVERALL OPINION


- Being adept at passive bass and having tried many active basses. I saw no
acquire any active bass. But after trying a Stingray and a Sterling, I cracked.

- For cons, the sound is quite unique MusicMan, take the time to try before you buy.

- For my part, I would do this choice without hesitation but with the piezo pickup.
