marcus bell Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 anyone ever wanted a bass so bad and have seen loads about but when you actually start looking to get one the market goes quiet... hmmm Quote
Lynottfan Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 The Stingray hunt starting to hurt a bit Marcus? I feel your pain mate, bare with it I, am sure you will get a Ray and all will be happy, but it is typical. Quote
marcus bell Posted April 17, 2013 Author Posted April 17, 2013 yeah its annoying... plus ive got a guy who said hell buy my bass but now wont reply to my texts.... if someone would just want a swap for my precision plus a little cash things would be ideal Quote
Mr Fretbuzz Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 What's just as annoying is ordering a Bass for delivery next Saturday when the wife is supposed to be working and her boss changes her shift so she'll be there when it arrives. I guess I'll have to tell her about it when it arrives :-D Quote
MB1 Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 MB1. Like Buses! You wait ages for one then two arrive at once. Quote
marcus bell Posted April 17, 2013 Author Posted April 17, 2013 i guess so , just keep looking at the same stuff but no one is willing to 1. do a deal with one of my basses 2. buy my precision ohwell, i guess good things come to those who wait Quote

MB1 Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 marcus bell' ohwell, i guess good things come to those who wait MB1. ...Is it a Musicman Stingray or a Pint of Guinness your after? Quote
marcus bell Posted April 17, 2013 Author Posted April 17, 2013 haha i dont like guiness so it must be the musicman , annoying thing is i know where there is a lovely sunburst stingray for sale and the seller wants to do a cash plus my sub series ray deal, so all that needs to happen really is my precision to sell, i never even use it!

Chris2112 Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 Always the case. You see a bass that piques your interest, decide to get hold of one and by the time you're ready to buy there are none to be seen! Quote
Mr Fretbuzz Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 No cant tell her as I'll have to tell her about the 4 bass books arriving and the strap plus I've just told her she's got a speeding ticket in the post :-D Quote
Twigman Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 [quote name='iceonaboy' timestamp='1366203212' post='2049527'] I had the most amazing bout of GAS after seeing another post about the Fender Cabronita P bass and thought, I gots to have one! There does not seem to be any in stock anywhere! I found Guitar Guitar doing them and ordered one, but the guy says now it will be first two weeks in May before they get them in. Im away back to work on the 7th! I cant wait that long for it! It will be unbearable! [/quote] Dawsons are reporting that they have stock Quote
Mr Fretbuzz Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 Wooah GAS Sounds great on a Fender Rumble Combo maybe. Could sound much better on another Amp? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH9u9aOOiNM#action=share Quote

marcus bell Posted April 19, 2013 Author Posted April 19, 2013 The search for one is getting toooooooo annoying Quote
Twigman Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 [quote name='iceonaboy' timestamp='1366267742' post='2050217'] I looked on their website and checked stock and it was all 0, [/quote] They were reporting 2 in stock in black when i looked just before I posted that post Quote

Lowender Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) I own a Ray, a nice one, and have to admit, some of those budget sub stingrays sound just as good. Edited April 20, 2013 by Lowender Quote
thunderider Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 same as ....im despereate for a marshall 3520/30...there were loads but now i want one.... Quote
chris_b Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 In the past I've had to wait for things to turn up and during that time I invariably decide that I didn't really want it anyway. When I think about it, that happens most of the time, which is probably why I only own what I use, and I've got such a low buying/selling count. Quote
