faceman Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) As part of my clear out, I'm going to pass on my lovely StingRay as I need the cash to thin out the collection. I've loved having this bass but I've managed to get away with just my Darryl Jones so here this one goes. It was previously owned by 'Ghost Rider' and before that, another fellow on this forum. Anyway, this is a rather good example of a 2005 Ernie Ball StingRay 2EQ. I've played it with TI Flats and you get a lovely warm thump but the StingRay growl is still there. The body is in pretty mint condition, with nothing major I could see. Comes with standard Music Man hardcase and strung with Ernie Ball Slinkies. I purchased this just before Christmas for £650 so would quite like to get a similar amount back, but open to offers Any questions, just let me know.

joe_bass Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Love the look of all black with a maple fretboard, good luck with this mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus27 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Typical, I wanted one of this at Xmas, 2EQ in black with maple board but none around. So I ended up getting a 3EQ in natural with maple board. Bloody typical :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faceman Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 Thanks for all the replies, in great Basschat style as usual I've been inundated with offers. [b]The bass is now on hold[/b] for Spikyhedgehog, pending money heading into my bank account. It does have a great look and I gave it a play this evening just to make sure I am doing the right thing. It sounds fantastic but I'm too used to the lovely smooth Lakland neck, opposed to the StingRay standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic guy, great communication - would do business again! Seb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
