niceguyhomer Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 (edited) Only had this a few months and I said when I got it that it's everything I want in a bass, which it is apart from a missing string. Truth is, I have GAS for a Stingray 5 but could also make good use of a decent lined fretless 5 in my new band. If you look at Jon Shuker's site, you'll see a pic of this bass and a price tag of £1345. It has 2 Delano humbuckers with a preamp bypass switch, a beautiful neck with Abalone inlays and it sounds fantastic. The colour is absolutely stunning, it's immaculate and comes in a new Hiscox case. I know stuff ain't moving at the mo so although I'd be happy to sell for somewhere in the region of £875, I'd prefer to trade for a Stingray 5 - a nice one or a lined fretless 5 (cash +/-). More pics on request. Edited October 13, 2009 by niceguyhomer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayman Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Superb bass. I heard/saw it in action a handful of weeks ago, and it's sublime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sshorepunk Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Wow, stunning bass, I didn't expect to see this for sale, I have the same problem, it's missing a string, otherwise I may have sold a kidney!! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceguyhomer Posted October 12, 2009 Author Share Posted October 12, 2009 I always have two basses, when it's two fours, there's no problem, when it's two fives it's no problem either but when I have one of each the four never gets played. I really don't want to sell this bass, I'd rather keep this and sell my 5 which, although I really love it, it just isn't suitable (too Marcus Miller) for the music my new band plays. Sadly, I know there's no chance of getting my money back on the 5er in the current gloom and can't afford to take a big hit on it so my beloved Jazz has to go.

Guest Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I'd like this, but it's only really a possibility if someone buys my ACG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
