Hello again groovers,

 

Please excuse the delay in getting the pictures up.

 

This is no longer a "feeler" post but a definite "for sale" now but I'm changing the price to £1500.

 

I know this looks like bad form but I feel the initial £1350 was very hasty on my part, considering what an animal of a bass it is, it's lovely condition and the trends in USA prices these days.   On top of this, I've had so many offers above the "feeler" price that I'd be a numpty to honour my initial "feeler" price.  I hope you all understand.

 

Anyway, here they are.

 

Gorgeous Stingray.

Makes my hairs stand up every time I play it but I'm playing less and less bass these days and am hooked on electric and acoustic six string.

I'm thinking about busking in my 60's.

 

The only marks on it are so hard to photograph.  There's a tiny dent below the g string mute, and an even tinier one on the headstock but I can't find it now.

The pickguard has some wear from me but there's hardly any swirling ty[ical on a black poly body.

 

Birdseye maple neck which glows.

Serial number on the bridge.

Mutes.

4.36kg which equates to 9.6 lbs.

Truss rod works perfectly.

 

These basses need no introduction.

Absolute animal tone.

 

Needs to be gigged and NEVER has been.

 

Absolutely welcome over at the Chewie residence but I've got a little Roland CUBE here so bring a worthy amp if you're coming.

I've got a Gert big garage.

 

Kind regards to you all.

Don't say that..............!!!

 

I think you are making a big msitake! From the one pick, I'll bet it is absolutely stunning all over :D You'll never get that again and when you consider the price of Sterling Rays 34/35 around the £1300 in GG, you may find a replacement (should you realise your potential mistake) unaffordable in the near future. 

 

DON'T DO IT, YOU WILL REGRET IT!!

All the best, Andy

I have a black one of these from 2011 with the same stunning birdseye maple neck (but with ebony fretboard)

 

Whoever gets this will be chuffed! I certainly am with mine 🙂

Looks like it'll be a beauty - As for the price - it's actually in line (with currency exchanges) to some other similar basses in the USA/Can - of course depending on condition/weight etc. With conversion it's around $2300 CAD - So, I think you're being fair and it's appreciated to those interested. I keep flip/floppin over which MM i have interest in - 2 band/3 band/retro/sabres etc etc. lol Cheers
