basspyro Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 (edited) For sale is my EB Musicman 4 stringer, it's in good condition, a couple of tiny dings and even smaller scratches. The only chips are at the top of the headstock (low ceiling!) It comes with an official EB Musicman case, which has one crack a corner that no way effects its integrity. I'm looking for around £650 or Jazz or Precision (plus cash, depending on the bass) Phil Edited October 31, 2008 by basspyro
budget bassist Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Though they were worth that, and it's not too bad a price, the way the market is at the moment, you'll be VERY lucky if someone gives you that amount of money....£650 is more like it these days, sad but true i'm afraid
Kev Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 come on lets not remind every stingray seller of that and let him sell his bass maple with black headstock sounds lovely get some pics up
Jobiebass Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 I still dont understand why they are so cheep right now. Only a year ago they would go for £850 in good condition. I blame Gorden Brown, what does he eat for breakfast??? Credit Crunch *gets coat*
Marcus Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 I'm sure the black headstock is a cost option too..... looking forward to seeing pics for this one.......

GreeneKing Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 (edited) [quote]come on lets not remind every stingray seller of that and let him sell his bass[/quote] Well Kev I'm surprised at your comment to be honest as it's normally you doing just that. Good stuff Best colour combination imo and good luck with the sale. Peter Edited June 22, 2008 by GreeneKing

phsycoandy Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 This commenting on peoples for sale threads is getting more than irratating!
basspyro Posted June 23, 2008 Author Posted June 23, 2008 Hello! looks like i opened a proverbial here! I'll just throw in my two cents, it's cash 'value' is only relative to how much someone wants it really, obviously prices fluctuate and i'm cool with that, but it's a great bass, in a lovely finish and i value it enough to see it go to a good home where someone will enjoy it. I didn't build it, or design it, so i have no rights over its worth in that respect, i'm just basing its value on what i paid for it, experience, research and its condition! And has anyone heard of haggling!? Anyway, pics to follow tonight so ya'll can have a look. Phil

I'd guess its a Ray because they're more common but I think this ad needs more description or pictures.
