PTB Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) I've seen something on here that I'm keen on so funds are needed! Here is my EB MM Stingray 5 in translucent teal with a maple fingerboard. It looks great and the colour varies from green to blue depending on whether you're in natural or stage light. I have owned this bass for around 7 years and it's in good condition. There's a couple of small dings, one on the front near the top which is more like a small oval mark and one on the heel of the neck where a small piece of finish has gone - see the middle picture for this. No-one can see either of these when you are playing the instrument. Comparing the serial number with those at [url="http://musicmanbass.org"]http://musicmanbass.org[/url] suggests it was originally built in 2000. It has D'Addario ProSteel strings which I put on about 8 weeks ago and haven't played it much since. I do have some feedback in that section if you wish to peruse it. I'm looking for £700.

JPJ Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 What a cracking price have yourself a free bump for a real bargain
ThomBassmonkey Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 This bass makes me glad that mine had the colour stripped before I got it, but also with that mine had a maple board haha. Awesome bass and very fair price.
PTB Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 Thanks guys. Yes, it's priced to sell quickly. I was sorely tempted by your red Sandberg Thom but I've got my eye on something else now....
ThomBassmonkey Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 What's that if you don't mind me asking, it must be something nice? I got a Ray 5 for the Sandberg, so I'm happy (as much as I miss the 'berg!).
Delberthot Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 I had a teal 4 string with rosewood board and white scratchplate and it looked awful but the combination of the colour, the larger black scratchplate and the maple look amazing. If I had the Doddies I'd be having that.
Higgie Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 I already have a StingRay 5 and I STILL want this! Awesome colour combo.
Shambo Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 ah thats pretty... and a good price too, does it come with its OHSC? ... still not enough pennies in my SR5 fund jar yet... one day soon tho.

This is now on hold pending the usual. Edited June 28, 2011 by PTB
shauncox Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Hi!!! Can you message me if this one doen't sell ! Ready to go and searching! Thanks Shaun
Rumple Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 I had a 4 string Sterling in that colour and loved it, looks even nicer on a 'ray 5, luckily this has sold as it would have been very tempting.
