  1. [s]For Sale my 2003 Stingray 5 in trans red, received recently on a trade and while she is very lovely and sounds exactly like a stingray5 should (lovely fat bottom with plenty of punch and loads of tones from the preamp and pickup selector) I prefer my 5 strings to be a little longer scale like my ACG Gallus 5 (which is 35" scale). If I had room for both she'd be staying as she's a superb example and plays & sounds great Her B string sounds loads better than the previous ray5 I had and also the G&L L2500 I had recently, much less flabby but just not quite as toit as the B on my ACG. From Ernie Ball customer service: "Thank you for playing Ernie Ball Music Man! Your StingRay 5 was completed on April 18th, 2003." Weight is 10lb dead. ain't she pretty [url="https://flic.kr/p/B7W9ik"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/Aa4gtX"][/url] Frets in spectacular condition, fingerboard clean and even [url="https://flic.kr/p/A9V4QJ"][/url] back of neck unmarked and feeling satin smooth [url="https://flic.kr/p/AsYHJu"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/AsYUGv"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/B5KyRy"][/url] includes Ernie Ball strap buttons and straplocks [url="https://flic.kr/p/AsYHNC"][/url] her only issue is this chip straight through the finish but the wood underneath is inaffected [url="https://flic.kr/p/AsYTza"][/url] Apart from the one very small chip (less than a 5p piece in length) she's in almost perfect condition. Bass is in Sheffield, price includes UK shipping.[/s]
  2. Steve just popped over to meet his new fretless p bass and to bring me my new stingray5. Super pleasant transaction and he sure takes good care of his toys
  3. Having watched a bit of porcupine tree last night on youtube I have gas for a fretless wal, it sounded sooooooooo good!
  4. [quote name='eude' timestamp='1447337590' post='2906833'] That really is a gorgeous setup. It must sound amazing, effortless low end? (but weigh a tonne...) Eude [/quote] Thanks buddy I just love it, 360 degree warm bass feelings a tad heavy but we all share the load-in / load-out so it's all done pretty quick anyways

  8. [quote name='Hutton' timestamp='1447174581' post='2905548'] I would definitely give in to temptation Andy. In fact I'm sure I heard the Ray fretless calling your name earlier today! 😀 [/quote] oh darn you and your silver tongue, don't suppose you've got any sound samples of her have you as that might provide the tipping point
  9. Oo I am tempted once I get sufficient cash together
  10. She's a beauty and I can vouch for her amazingness
  11. [quote name='Stephen Houghton' timestamp='1446903388' post='2903364'] Cheers for holding until I can get over Andy [/quote] No problem my friend

  16. [s]For sale...my '77 Fender P, black (not a refin) with some sexy wear spots and rosewood fingerboard. Frets dressed recently by Jon Shuker and new bone nut added at same time. She plays lovely now ...the old nut was held together by cardboard Original wiring loom and pups included but not currently fitted (see pics below). Kiogon loom and Seymour Duncan SPB1 pup currently installed (original pup does work fine so you get 2 fully working pups here and the kiogon 'patented' solderless wiring means a quick switch too!). Original covers and thumbrest included. I've replaced all the scratchplate and pup screws but the originals are bagged and included Includes non-original (but looks exactly right) Fender branded G&G hardcase. Weight...measured using the tried and tested 'weigh self with and without bass' gives a very pleasant 8.4lb Currently wearing Labella flats (45-105). Bass is in Sheffield. Happy to consider part trades with cash my way, 4 string fretless, or a Gibson Thunderbird (burst or natural mahogany preferably)...

  17. Just received Clives' ebow, super easy transaction and super swift dispatch. Exactly as described, top chap
  18. Chris was the linchpin in a 3 way deal whereby his mate got my G&L and I got his mates' ACG, not a clue how he made it work but I have a lovely ACG and his mate has a lovely G&L, the man is a wizard of some kind Superb packaging too
  19. Holy smokes! This is my dream db!! aaaaarrrgghhhhhhh!!!!!
  20. Absolutely superb rig, I loved mine, sounded amazing!
  21. Sad times matey but what a glorious rig!
  22. I do rather want this so I can give it a whirl with the band! Would you consider trades with you adding some cash to make it work?
  23. well that's the first Sandberg I've ever liked the look of deal with confidence, Guillaume is a top chap
  24. [quote name='Truckstop' timestamp='1446401754' post='2899120'] Fretless Precisions always sound great. I had a bitsa once made from an '83 neck and a no-name body and really liked it. Lovely soft, articulate, expressful tone with a subtle mwah that you o my get from a P pup. I have no doubt that this one would sound even more lovely! I'd gladly have this one if funds allowed and I'd use it every day. A bass this gorgeous deserves to be used! [/quote] Thanks matey, if it had a j pup at the bridge it'd still be perfect as I love the feel of it and the tone from the p pup...I'd just like a bit more j with my p
