Stingray 5 Special: A Demo Without Slapping. 

You're welcome! I hadn't heard of Kajagoogoo until now, but it looks like I've just been introduced to something new today! Thanks for watching.

Thanks Tony for the support and the views! I'm glad the info is helpful.

Thank you! You've got plenty of great jams on your channel as well.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.

Yeah! While a Stingray will always sound like a Stingray, that tone works in so many more situation's than just a good slap riff. Thanks for watching!

That's awesome! I'm excited for you. What finish are you going for?

Don't get me wrong, I love slap just as much as any other guy, but let's be real: fingers Tyler tone is probably more important for most players! Thanks for stopping by.

Thank you!! Yeah, that classic "punch-in-the-face" Stingray tone really comes out when you hang around on the low B string!

Thank you! For sure, Stingrays almost always sound great, but that finish is what really caught my eye! Appreciate you stopping by.

Thank you!! I'll take whatever I can get. I appreciate anyone stopping to listen in the first place!

Nice! What's your color? It was hard to choose with all the cool options!

And that finish!!!!!!

Thanks! Yeah, it's SO tempting to start playing slap as soon as you pick it up, but it's got so much more to offer! I'm normally not big into gloss finishes, but it just worked here. Fortunately, the neck is still satin, and that's what really matters for me when it comes to finishes! Thanks again for stopping by.

Thanks to you man. I need a HH in my life. Can't get on with H

Wow, thanks! It's hard to make the B-string on the Stingray sound bad, to be fair!

Thank you, I appreciate it! Hope it was useful!

Hi Edwin! Here I'm using the custom molded Ultimate Ears UE6 Pro. Thanks for watching!

I didn't notice any issues. The only time that's ever been an issue for me was on a few Warwicks, since you can adjust the string spacing. But not on the Stingray.

The G string does slip off more easily than on other basses. It's a fairly famous thing with all EBMM 5 strings.

You're welcome! There's no denying that the Stingray is a slap machine though!

It was tempting, trust me! Thanks for watching.

You're welcome! Stingrays can do so much more than just slap - they deserve better than that!
