Thanks for watching! Below are more full sound clips using the Pete Wentz Sterling: -Thnks Fr Th Mmrs: th-cam.com/video/btX6YA8hPqY/w-d-xo.html -Misery Business: th-cam.com/video/6-pQwkiPgx0/w-d-xo.html
Had mine for about 3 months now and tuned it twice! its not at my house so not playing every day, but I turn up a week later its still perfect. Great value bass.
I’m a Pbass guy but I really want this pass bc it’s kind of the best of both worlds since it does the Pbass thing but also has that jazz bass character in it.
I'm curious what this Stingray sounds like compared to the short scale Stingray bass? Have you tried one of those? If so, how does the tone compare? There are more options with the electronics of the passive short scale, and it has Neodymium pickups opposed to this bass with has Alnico 5's.
No, im with you on the passive stingray pickups thing. My main bass is a Washburn XB400, and I loved the bass but hated the pickups. Problem, the washburn pickups are weird soapbars that I couldnt find ANY pickups that would fit. So, I routed it out and put a pair of stingray pickups, with a 4 way rotary switch that lets me turn off just the inner coils of the pickups, so I can kind of emulate a jazz bass, and otherwise wired as a jazz bass, so 2 volume, 1 tone. Its, Honestly the best sounding bass I've ever played.
I need to see if I can afford to get one of these in the next year. Been looking for another bass (ironically to be a counter to the Squier Wentz I own) and the tones from your vid honestly sold me. Stingrays were one I liked for years but never could get behind active pickups so this jumped up on my list
Hope you're able to get your hands on this bass! Definitely agree about the active electronics, it's easier for me to dial in tones on this bass than my active Ray5. To be fair though, the original SUB Ray5s had an issue where the preamp got way too hot.
The tones on this bass are incredible. I do agree with you. The neck profile on this one has kept me from getting it because I prefer thinner necks. Sidenote, If you prefer a jazz neck profile, the sterling ray4, ray 24, and the short scale stingray all have a 1.5” jazz bass neck profile. I can definitely recommend any of them!

Yes seriously cannot stress how great the value is for this bass, especially considering how expensive artists models are going for
"if it can be used by him it can be used by anyone" XD
LOL I probably could have worded that better 😂
@@MyBassistChris I mean youre not wrong the man isn't known for being a good player
Looking forward to the Fall Out Boy covers!

Yes definitely feels like a P bass with jazz bass characteristics, but still feels/sounds different than a PJ.

Great Review
I just got the TD Starcaster but this is making me want to shell out another few hundred bucks for a bass😂. Awesome review and playing as always.
Haha I feel ya, I’m really diggin’ having a passive Sterling around. Hope you’re enjoying the Starcaster!
do you think upgrading the pick up to the AG4m would be worth it since this bass doesnt have a pre amp?

Ah I knew the Ray4 had a shorter profile, but didn't know the Ray 24 also 38mm. Good to know thanks!
🎯

Trying my best to level up both! Haha
Nice review My Bassist Joji😂
Haha haven't gotten the Joji comparison in a while
@@MyBassistChris cause sometimes we look in your eyes and that's where we find the glimpse of Pink guy🤣🤣
No more government subsidies for active basses
