thepurpleblob Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 (edited) I have a very clean and very standard 3EQ Stingray in Black with a black pickguard and a maple neck. It's about 3 years old. It has a Bass Xtender fitted. There are no issues or nasties of any description. It lives in a standard MM case that came new with it. I've really gone over to 5 strings now and am looking for a trade for something similar in 5 strings. I'm very much open to offers but I'm thinking along the lines of a G&L L2500 (USA) a 5 string StingRay or suchlike. I don't like really narrow string spacing and I already have an Overwater Perception 5, so something different to that too. Other than that - try me. This is a feeler in that I'm fussy as this has been a fabulous bass and I didn't think I would get rid of it. I'd rather have something I will actually use though. I'm extremely reluctant to post... I don't mind travelling for the right deal (with reason of course). I'll sort some better photographs when I can find some daylight if someone would like them.

thepurpleblob Posted October 22, 2009 Author Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) Couple of rubbish pictures added to give you the idea. Any interest at all? Going back in the cupboard for a rainy day at this rate Edited October 22, 2009 by thepurpleblob
Delberthot Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 I don't have a 5 string but I'll look after it for you rather than having it sit in a cupboard :brow:

Willl Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Would you consider a Yamaha TRB5p? It's a lovely bass, originally bought from Gwilym here. It's been in the rainy day cupboard for a year or so... There are a few pictures of it in this thread... although I think I may have had the DT shakes that day. [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=11755&hl=trb5p"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=11755&hl=trb5p[/url] If you're interested I have several better photos I can email over Willl

Just doesn't say StingRay to me It would be a good idea in all other respects. I am in Manchester quite a lot.
thepurpleblob Posted October 25, 2009 Author Posted October 25, 2009 Sudden flurry of PMs all replied to. A couple of very interesting propositions too although I'm not sure the offer-I-can't refuse has come along yet. If it makes any difference, I am (due to new ridiculous mortgage coming around the corner) trying to downsize everything a bit. I also have a TRB4ii (blue) and a G&L Tribute L2500 (blueburst) to throw into the mix if someone fancies a combination. No cash sales at the moment as the lawyer would get the money not me Still looking for something "proper" and (almost certainly) 5 string.
thepurpleblob Posted October 30, 2009 Author Posted October 30, 2009 Last ditch stand bump.... just decided to sell the house and buy that country mansion (well maybe not) so going to be in headless chicken mode for a while
