Kiwi Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 What kind of celinders are you looking for? I have three at the moment (including the second jazz that Chris ever made) and tbh I'm sorely tempted to keep them all but a stingray in that kind of nick is hard to ignore.

Guest BassKS Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Anyone, where can I get that tape/sponge which was used for muting? I want to stick some under my 2005 stingray so that i can play Chic stuff without sounding crap. I can do all the stuff, Everybody dance, freak out, we are family but its never quite reproducible....Bernard Edwards could do it but half of it was the muting...I reckon anyway.

SpinalTap Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 Sorry about the bad exchange rates. Here on the other side of the pond I have seen them sell for more, but none of them were as nice looking as this one. It is currently strung with LaBella Flatwounds. Alot of thump, Bernard Edwards-style.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotmaka Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Too expensive at the moment but absolutly awesome anyhow.

If you really wanted them you'd have to sell your 2005 and get a pre- 93/94 Stingray. Sorry for the hijack!

tombboy Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Lovely bass! Wish I had the money... +1 to what Graeme said about the mutes. You'd have to sell the 2005 as the bridge is different. Off the top of my head you'd need a 'pre-flea' - bridge with the thumbscrews and mute springs. If you find one but without the mute pads then any old neoprene mouse pad material would serve you well. Just cut to size and glue in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil H Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Looking for a 70's one of these but way out of the budget I have seen UK dealers sell them for! I wonder why its never been used? N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[quote name='Neil H' post='344283' date='Dec 3 2008, 05:06 PM']I wonder why its never been used?[/quote] This bass was owned by a guitar player, so it stayed in it's case most of the time. It has been used a bit. Looks like a bass that has players wear for 1-2 years instead of 30....

MB1 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 [quote name='SpinalTap' post='343707' date='Dec 3 2008, 12:09 AM']I'm selling this lovely looking pre-EB Stingray from 1977 (serial: B006) In almost new condition. Everything original, and the electronics work great. This Is the best looking vintage Stingray I have ever seen Only damage I could find is a small dent near the strapbutton under the bass, and a small 'red' stain in the finish, at the bottom of the bass, near the controls. This stain is from the interior of the case were this bass has been put for 25 years. Very special bass. It will be very hard to find another one in this shape. Pics! More on request..... [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] I'm asking 2550 euro's for this bass. Not really interested in trades. But it never hurts to send me a proposal. Although there has to be cash involved. I like older Fenders, Celinders, but let me know if you have something else. I would strongly prefer a pickup deal. In Amsterdam, or meet somewere (at the border) If you live in Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany etc. The original case (with the red interior!) is included. Cool for the vintage vibe, but not really suitable for shiping. [/quote] MB1. Santa Claus You have P.M! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
