What's the going rate for Stingrays nowadays?

FWIW: I paid 1500 for a 2013 Classic 2eq last week. Good but not perfect condition Actually the best sounding Stingray i've ever had IMO -
How gigable is the MINIMARK 802 N 300?
LombardPhill replied to LombardPhill's topic in Amps and Cabs
Thanks dude. I'm coming to the conclusion that it would be enough for me. There seem to be enough people using both the older and new versions with good results. There is a similar discussion on TalkBass right now, and one guy is gigging the N300 and reckons it is more powerful than the older version because of the more conventional eq controls, as much as the extra 50 watts. -
MARSHALL BB-2 Not to be confused with the original Bluesbreaker pedal, which was essentially a preamp-in-a-box - this is a dedicated, dual-mode overdrive pedal. "Boost" mode is a transparent-sounding clean boost, designed to push the front end of your amp harder, while "Blues" mode gives a much more shaped (and saturated!) tone, reminiscent of the original Bluesbreaker amps being dimed. I bought this pedal back in something like 2010. It was my main distortion effect for a while, and did a handful of gigs with me, but as I've experimented with new effects and different amps, I find myself using it less and less. I still have the original box and user's manual, which are a little worn in places (see pictures); the pedal itself is in excellent condition. Only one thing: the controls originally had black position indicators painted on them, which have mostly rubbed off over the years. Up to you whether you leave them as is, or paint some new ones on! Price includes postage to mainland UK. If you'd like it sent to a different country, drop me a PM. Open to sensible offers!

They sound quite nice as well. I've had zero chance to wind them up due to various things, it'll probably be the weekend before I can try.

I am suspicious that the US Specials will go up, and the mids will get all the really heavy wood that nobody wants, especially as the Specials are now close to the same weight as the old versions. So much for the new "lightweight redesign" they started with. -

Heights are definitely a different sport for passives rather than EMG. EMG have very low magnet pull and the recommendation is to get them as close to the string as possible - mine are barely 3mm. Just enough clearance so when playing something on the 22nd fret the string doesn't foul on the pickup. That definitely doesn't work with magnets in passive pickups.

Knackered truss rod and fingerboard removal HELP PLEASE

I don't think my guy wants to do it which is why I'm prepared to have a go myself. The bass is pretty worthless as it is -

escape road Fender does sell replacement parts under their own brand, but a lot of listings on eBay are aftermarket or third-party. Unless the listing specifically says “Fender OEM” or shows part numbers that match Fender’s official spec, it might not be an actual Fender part. If you want verified Fender components, check Fender’s official parts lookup or ask a dealer to confirm the exact part you need.
