Felix Robinson's Stingray tone never bothered me that much, but I did prefer the P-Bass sound that Mickie Jones got prior to Felix joining the band. Oddly, early pics of Felix show him with a Precision, but every time I saw them he had the 'Ray. Sometimes the MM sound through an SVT can be a little annoying - you have to watch them active 'lectronics, as there is no padded/attenuated input on old Ampegs.
That was one GREAT live band.
