Very interested in those. My white Tbird was a storming bass, neck dive schneck dive, I loved it.
-
no mate, I'll give a last hike before just keeping it. It's a lovely thing, and I'll be more than happy to just hang on to it if no-one fancies it. Guess I'll have to save up for a Precision. -
final bump.
-
Well......my guess would be the Precision plus a ton on top? Assuming the P bass is in A1 condition. Usually mint Precisions go for around 550, and I'm after 650 for the ray, black/maple is my ideal choice too.

I'm specifically after a USA Fender Precision plus cash my way for this now.

Hi mate, yes it's still available. I'm in Manchester.

Replied.

Alternatively, I'm after a Gibson 335, or a Fender SRV Strat. Basswise, it's really a Marcus Miller Jazz I'm after first and foremost.

[quote name='rayfw' post='366420' date='Dec 30 2008, 05:25 PM']GAS got the better of you Russ? Just got a Marcus myself and they are fantastic basses. This used to be mine and I missed it the moment it left my house. So much so that I bought another 'ray 2 days later. If I had the cash I'd have it back without hesitation but I'm skint at the mo' Unless you fancy a trade for an 08 Blizzard Pearl / Rosewood USA Precision Good luck with the sale.[/quote] Cheers Ray, I just fancy another Marcus, and the extra cash on top would be useful. It's the nicest ray I've ever played, I just fancied someting new. I'm a bit fussy about the colour of the Precision, and I'm really keen to get a black/maple one to be honest, JJ Burnel style. Thanks for the offers Mike, but not quite what I'm after at the moment.

GONE.

To me there are no rules, go with your gut feeling. [i]However[/i], personally I would always suggest a beginner to start on a 4 stringer. Get the bassics right on that and play as much as you can. If in a few months the urge for a low B string is still there, well, go for it then. Only my opinion, and you'll get quite a few here, but whatever you go for, enjoy, that's all that matters.

[quote name='Ghost Rider' post='357384' date='Dec 17 2008, 10:24 PM']I'd love to give it to you for £550 mate but I've had one offer of £600 & another £635 & I've turned both of them down. Its always worth a haggle though, I'd do the same [/quote] Don't give it away Anth, it's worth at [i]least[/i] £650 of anyones money. -
Beautiful bass, top price too, have a bump. -
Just sticking my opinion in, I used an Alpine White Epi TB for a year in a rock band, and it was faultless. Brilliant bass, well put together, awesome sound, VERY big tone, and a very playable neck indeed. Having tried a few Gibsons over the years, I [i]honestly[/i] believe the Epi beat them all for sound and playability, and of course price. Never tried a Tokai, so I can't comment, but I'd definately recommend the Epiphone.

[quote name='Ghost Rider' post='355287' date='Dec 15 2008, 07:23 PM']Cheers for the message Russ, My wife's B-day is on the 15th March as well so I did think It was meant to be. I'd love to keep it as it really is a great player & looker but since my jazz build I can't see me playing it... I'll keep my fingers crossed for a lottery win for you so you can have it back Anth[/quote] Cheers mate, I'll cross my fingers too . If mysteriously I find £650 down the back of the sofa, I'll be in touch.

[quote name='Ghost Rider' post='352796' date='Dec 12 2008, 03:22 PM']Hi mate, If you want it back I'm not in a great hurry to sell so I could hang onto it for a bit for you??? If not let me know. Cheers[/quote] Wish I could mate, but I'm skint. It has the same birthday as my dad 15th March, and I definately had a connection with it, and it was a mistake letting it go, but hey ho, there you go, you live and learn. Great bass for someone this one, if it's a Stingray you fancy, this is the one IMO.
-
You can't beat the Black/Maple look. This 'ray is not only a looker, but a player too, I want it back
-
That's bloody gorgeous. -
GROAN............wish I could have it back from you. Superb Stingray this one, I've missed it since it went, so much so, that I picked up another one. I'd have it right back if I could.
-
OOH let's see it then........
-
OOh nice.
-
Yeah, I didn't get my last copy with Trujillo on the cover either. I emailed to complain and got the copy a couple of days later. Followed a few days after by the new issue. Maybe BGM are having a few postal problems. Bloody irritating though, when Borders have it in store, and I, as a subscriber, still haven't recieved mine in the post. Hope it all gets sorted soon.

OOOOh that takes me back. I used to play one about 25 years ago, superb bass, and well worth a ton and a half of anyones dosh.
