This is how all bass sound videos should be made! Including all the fun blink-182 riffs which made me get a Stingray in the first place. Ray24 probably gets closest to that sound, probably my next bass purchase
Świetnie wygląda, ale kurde sound ma taki dość ciemny, w sumie najciemniejszy z wszystkich basów, dodatkowo jeszcze momentami jakiś taki strasznie skompresowany. Ale też mi się podoba z wyglądu :P. Imho soundem najlepiej wypadł Ray24.
amazing comparison! but you have to consider that there are differences between Ray4, Ray24 and Ray 34: -Ray 4 and Ray 24 have both ceramic pickups, Ray 34 alnico V pickups -Ray 24 has a better 2 eq preamp than Ray 4, Ray 34 has a 3 eq That said, I prefer the Ray24 sound
Co Cię skłoniło do drugiego porównania tych Sterlingów? ;) W tym zestawieniu tradycyjnie najlepszy Ray34 - no brzmi to bezbłędnie. Ray4 brzmi dla mnie jak pod kocem. Ray24 nieco lepiej, ale też nieco przytłumiony no i IMO nie jest wart ceny. Short scale zaskakująco fajnie, ale chyba brak troszkę dołu. Ja bym w tej gitarze założył flaty Ogólnie bezbłędne porównanie - trochę w miksie, trochę na sucho, mozna usłyszeć gitarki w róznych gatunkach i sytuacjach.
Chciałem dorzucić jeszcze Shost scala. Pozatym, wszystkie szutki mam w ofercie na muzycznych-gratach więc ktos będzie mógł kupić/wypożyczyć słynny bas z filmu :)
racja racja.. 34 brzmi masakrycznie dobrze. choruję na 35 teraz. Short scale bardzo jasny trochę dziwny. Nie wiem czy flaty by pomogły. Ray 24 od ray4 różni się tylko pickupem i mostem. Elektronika jest ta sama więc zakup ray 4 i wpakowanie do niego porządnego pickupu np. norstrand chyba bardziej się opłaca niż zakup modelu 24. Jednak dalej 34 zamiata bez litości.
Kudos for making a back-to-back comparison of the whole bass lineup. I don't think there are many videos like this on UA-cam.
IMHO: Ray 4 sounds a little muffled and dull, which is unfortunately, the case in real life. But the culprit is the pickup. It just lacks definition. Even Ray4 HH has better sounding pickups. So, swap the pickup, and it'll sound close to a real MM for a fraction of the price and with a comfortable 38mm neck. Ray24 is nice, has a mahogany slab body, better bridge than Ray4, same 38mm neck, same preamp, but better pickup. But it can be a little overpriced for what it is. Ray34 is your best MM affordable alternative. Really nice bass if you don't care for the "Made in USA" label. Great necks and finishes. The short-scale actually surprised me. I don't even know how you managed to get that tone. Even at full tone with volume boost in both parallel/series mode, I've never heard it sound so bright and tinny. In my experience, even at full tone, it's as full as Ray24 at flat EQ.
@@OverdriveFunStudio Hey, I'm from UA. I just like Sterling basses and played many of them except those different Ray34 versions. Hearing them stock side-by-side like this is quite cool.
I have RAY4. I replaced the stock sensor with a seymour duncan smb-4a. The sound became brighter and the deafness went away. I also stuck it inside with copper tape to prevent interference.
@@templebass3265 I am using a translator, so please forgive any mistakes. The pickup comes with instructions and there are two types of connections. I connected them in different ways, but I liked the parallel ones. Everything is well described in the instructions. I also added wires to keep the magnets in contact with the (-) . And most importantly, I washed off the graphite and applied copper tape to isolate it from interference. It got a lot better. Also, the new pickup will need to have a pad glued to the bottom. He has a different height. Here I wrote down the difference. Even with my poor performance, the difference is obvious ua-cam.com/video/iBH6OcpwyfQ/v-deo.htmlsi=UxKviXKtRHUa9mTs
Ray 34 is clearly the best sound!

Nice work! Adding the Stingray 24 to my inventory after your comparison.
Jak dla mnie Ray 34 to poezja 😍

The best type of comparison/ Very good job
Jak zwykle cudowny dźwięk stingraya
Ray24 for me!
1-ray34
2-ray24
3-ray4
Great video. Are you playing original music? Im sure i recognise the riff at 3:30, what is it?
Love that piece at 2:17

Ray24, way better then any other!

My friend Please remind me what country are your from ?

YT algorithm isn't showing this video in search results as of now, which is rubbish. It needs more views. 😕

Ray 4 have a serial link from humbucker, how you install the seymour? parallel or serial coils?

Fajne,ale brak im strun,więc nie moja bajka.
I love the sound of the Ray34, but the tuners are trash!
