wal4string Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) The deal is done. For Sale. My beloved Musicman Serial number E47642 completed on 07/25/05 It is a 2 EQ Sting Ray, Black with maple fretboard. Has the usual few small very light knocks on the headstock ( see image.) however the neck and body are like new. Only thing I don't like about this bass is the colour. Have been looking for a Natural/Maple Stingray but nothing doing so have decided to sell bass in order to buy one. Comes with Hard Case. Was £750.00 now looking for £700.00 plus shipping.

But not for me mate. In a past life I was a carpenter, and for me paint kills the unique look of wood. All painted basses look the same, but there are never two grains the same, rather like snowflakes.

From Cardiff. As I am sure you know there is still some debate as to what you gain with the extra EQ though.
Sibob Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Definitely, there is a lot of people that consider the 2eq to be closer in sound to early stingrays than the 3eq. Me?....my amp EQ is all I need lol. Best preamp I've ever played has been a 2band! Si
