Oh Neil.....stop bumping this you're tormenting a man with no cash!

Pity my Ray 30th didn't sell....I would've loved this, Have a bump!

Thanks TB, looks like I will most likely still have it, if it's still available you never know.

Will bump this for a little longer... Come to the conclusion that I can live with this really ugly Stingray that smells a bit because we have a 15yr old boarder collie living in the house (might be a few stray dog hairs in the case) if I have to (hard life aint it?). I could do more useful things with the money or with a P bass plus less money, however.....if I have to polish this bloody thing again i'm going to seal in in a vacuum bag, put it back in it's case, under the bed and forget I own it until 2023 at the earliest. SS, you're welcome mate, to paraphrase a crap song 'my Ray is on fiiiurrrrh'

Someones missed a real beauty there Martin.........times are hard :-(

.......'but the nauseating bashfulness of early Diana, makes me want to set fire to comemorative tea towels' If you don't sell this during the Half Man Half Biscuit quotes then I'll move onto the Mac Lads...

No love for a 30th Anni Ray...? Fit in nicely with the Teal, just need a natural to make a traffic light.

'.......the manual dexterity of Hannu Mikala, makes me want to shake hands with the whole of Finland'

Pure class...................'dodgey transformers' and all that, By 'eck this beats trying to sell basses....

'all I want for Christmas is a Dukla Prague away kit' Bump.

[quote name='MB1' timestamp='1316519131' post='1379020'] MB1. its a through neck! What do you think my name is Dean Tavolaris?(Magician Extraordinaire) BUMP! [/quote] Through neck......through neck! Going all posh now are we? When I was a lad we used to nail the necks on and like it!

I'll take this Martin, but only if you change that bloody carbon neck and put a decent wooden one on..........gets coat.

Sorry Paul but all my experiments with 5ers have ended up as [expensive] failures. Thanks for the offer though.

Tell yer what, I'll up my previous offer.... Now: A Stingray 30th Anni PLUS Sue Ryder Modded PLUS Yellow Spangles AND 4 malteasers (though there is a dog hair on one of them). Is that serious enough for yer? BUMP..

Well this is now going back to it's previous owner, and my old Ray 30th is coming back to me. Guess that's the way it was meant to be!

Another bounce before I drop some cash on a nice Ric strap with Schaller strap locks (The standard fitted buttons fit Schaller locks for those that may be interested) and the purchase guilt makes me withdraw. Still open to trades as well as cash........but I am a fussy burger

This still here TIM?

[quote name='jay249' post='1368070' date='Sep 9 2011, 09:01 PM']By the look of your signature, you don't appear to have any shortage of quality basses to focus on![/quote] Thank you my friend.....GAS is a terrible thing tho. If the Ric sells, may be able to make an offer.

I wish you'd hurry up and sell this....this is painfull!

Fancy a swap for a Ric, a slightly modded Sue Ryder and 5 of the opaque yellow spangles that are very rare these days?.............BUMP

Might be with you in the next couple of days....as my (similar condition to yours) 4003 hasn't moved I've made the mistake of playing it (always knew I was a closet Jam fan) and if I can find a way of stopping the neck moving horizontal on a strap then it may have to stay for a while. Not really played a 4003 before (had a few fumbles on 4001s occassionally) but I'm fairly impressed with the 2011 build quality. Just got to sell the concept of using a Ric over a 70s type Fender in the upcoming Motown/Soul band project.....

Cracking little amps these. I used one with an 8 ohm MB cab for a couple of years, fine for small to medium sized pubs or monitoring and DI on a big stage.

Close to deciding to hang onto this for a bit so don't dawdle if you're interested...
