ThomBassmonkey Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) I started a thread on this a while ago but I know what I want now, so I thought I'd start a new one instead of bumping. I bought this from GingerFish a while back, I hope he doesn't mind me using his pictures. It's hardly been used since, it was used for the recording of my band's new album and a gig or two but I prefer the feel of my 'ray and with that already having been battered around I feel happier using that live. It's generally in good condition, it has a chip on the end of the headstock (as most do), it also has another mark or two around the body, very minor though. Not perfect but nothing anyone would see from the crowd. Though it's not in the video, you can hear it (straight into the desk) in this: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhQn_RU5U60[/media] I'm looking for £900 for it or a trade. For a trade I'm only interested in a Stingray 5 (I'd go for a Wal 5 too if anyone's offering ). I'll have a look at anything though. I could accept cash my way for a fair deal. Though please, if you want to make me an offer involving cash, make the offer straight away. I've had issues with people in the past spending weeks backwards and forwards-ing then them only offering less than a quarter of the value difference. It MUST be Red/Black/White/Natural coloured and 5 or 6 strings. Ideally HH or HS, I wouldn't mind piezos too. A hardcase can be included for the right deal.

rumour6 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Hi there, although not in the market just now I just HAD to say I [i][b]LOVE[/b][/i] the look of this bass. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4000 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I know these are really marmite but I think they look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomBassmonkey Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Thanks, it is a beautiful looking thing, sounds fantastic and plays well too. The pictures can't show the colour very well, it ranges from almost a deep red right through to almost bright orange depending on the lighting it's in. My band has a red theme so I was worried about buying it in case it looked more orange but it looks great under stage lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomBassmonkey Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 Bump up to say I might be prepared to trade for a fretless. A lightwave VL5 and a bit of cash my way for example. Because I've just been asked via PM, I don't mind shipping (as long as buyer covers costs) but I won't sell to anyone that doesn't have a decent reputation/post count on here without meeting for a cash sale. So if you have 0 posts and want me to ship to the other side of europe, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomBassmonkey Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 I've had surprisingly little interest in this It's a stunning bass, sounds amazing, plays beautifully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomBassmonkey Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Telling me you enjoy my band is never off topic! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomBassmonkey Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Bump! I'll look at more trades now, I really want to change this for something new. I know there's one or two around that are a little cheaper, but this one's not got any serious damage and sounds and feels brilliant. Anyone that's interested, just let me know what you intend to trade and I'll take a look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
