stingrayPete1977 Posted October 23, 2010 Posted October 23, 2010 Im on a quest for a 77 Ray but this does tickle my fancy OOOoo EEeerr! I have 2002 Teal Ray that I do like it a lot, That said another Ray would be easier to find than a 77 (Birth year) P Bass. HHhhhmmmm........... Have a "Im having a think where I can raise a few quid from" bump for now!
Hobbayne Posted October 23, 2010 Author Posted October 23, 2010 I,m going gigging tonite, so I,m gonna bump this!

Hobbayne Posted October 25, 2010 Author Posted October 25, 2010 Its Quite weighty, my bathroom scales reckon about 9 and a half pounds, about 4kg HTH!

Unless you get a nice trans Ash Ray a lot of Rays (notice I didn't say all so MM fanatics don't pounce) with solid finishes come up in the 9.5 lb category

stingrayPete1977 Posted October 26, 2010 Posted October 26, 2010 Thats a potential trade between the only two basses I would be trying to get my mitts on on BC at the moment, Weird.

The SR5 is the lighter of my 2 MMs.....
Hobbayne Posted October 26, 2010 Author Posted October 26, 2010 Thanks Mart, but I,m not looking for a 5 string at the moment!
martthebass Posted October 26, 2010 Posted October 26, 2010 Don't think you'd like the Ray5 H, it's red and Sterling did a shoddy job and forgot to add the frets....
Hobbayne Posted October 27, 2010 Author Posted October 27, 2010 [quote name='Hobbayne' post='997948' date='Oct 23 2010, 12:32 PM']I,m thinking about selling or swapping my 1977 vintage P Bass as its a bit too heavy for me theses days! All serious offers considered or swaps for similar quality instruments, I,m thinking about a stingray or maybe a less weighty Precision. It was setup and restrung by the Bass Centre in London last week with elites 45-105,s and the action and neck set the way I wanted. It was fitted with active pickups when I bought it over 10 years ago, but I had it professionally restored to its original glory. So its all original except for Fender Vintage Pickups with cloth wiring loom Pickguard V & T controls from a 1973 P Bass TGI flight case. I,m looking at around £1200. Cheers! Paul. [/quote] I've edited the Subject line as it was no longer set up last week, it was the week before!

Hobbayne Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 I,ll bump this one last time and then its back in the case for another time

Hobbayne Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 Thanks H, but not really my cup of tea Cheers for asking though!!
