danweb22 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) [s]Bought this from Russ on here last week on a bit of a whim and need to reclaim some cash for something else I have my eye on (damn GAS!) These really are awesome basses, with all the Pre EB features (2 band preamp, string through body, mutes, slab body) Excellent condition apart from a very small ding on the top part of the body which I didn't notice until it came to take some pictures! Comes with original hardcase in excellent condition I removed the mute assembly so I could get the action super low, this just bolts back on with the 5 screws you can see on the bridge Looking for [size=5]£1250[/size] o.n.o. and I will throw in the postage for that as well (UK)[/s] Edited October 7, 2012 by danweb22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowregisterhead Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I acquired one of these very basses in Tobacco Sunburst a few months ago from another BC'er, and it's a fabulous instrument. My first 'decent' bass which I bought second hand in 1981 was a pre-Ernie Ball Stingray, which I foolishly sold some years later when in dire financial straits. The Classic is so reminiscent of it - the lacquered neck, through stringing, slab body, string dampers are all great, but more importantly, for me it has that elusive juiciness that most SR5's seem to lack, and I've owned a few. Playing my Classic is like snogging an old girlfriend... I can't recommend it highly enough - if it appeals to you on any level, BUY IT. You will not be disappointed!

rumour6 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 LOVE!!! the look of these and it's MY finish so a letter to my bank manager would be much appreciated... I think this design blows away the usual Ray5, always wondered why they didn't do it before now... if you ever need it 'stored' indefinately.....
