Aren't these price rises going to impact on the price of used Rays? If nobody wants to pay £2-3k for a new one, but people still want to own a Ray, aren't the price of used ones going to go up? Forget about Stocks & Shares - invest in used Stingrays.

An improvement IMO

Is that the shop with lots of overpriced gear in?

To be fair prices on these have been creeping up...gone are the days when you could get one for under £100

Previous owner upgraded the pre and pick ups...probably need to get a screwdriver out now.

I suspect they don't have a Public School education...

Me too...

Personally I'd look at PJs - I'm finding much richer tones from mine..

Don't forget to include a tenner for the gallon of petrol and box of matches...

I'm going to stick my head up over the parapet now... Now I love the necks, the electronics and the tonal package but TBH I'm not a big fan of the body shape. IMO the body is too big and I don't like the top horn. If they made a smaller, more modern design (Spector/Warwick/ Ibanez) I'd be more inclined to buy and keep one. I have been tempted to buy one and send it off to @Andyjr1515 to transplant everything into something along the lines of my suggestion - not too dissimilar to the BE2 (wish they would make them at a more Yamaha price range - i.e great VFM). I wonder if the parts fit any of those cheap "build yourself" basses on eBay??

Needs to come with a gallon of petrol and a box of matches.... I thought that this was a Rick free site???

MyHermes - do I need to say any more? Check my latest gripe with them on their thread.

Glad it isn't just me that it bugs... As well as catching fraudsters we can disinfect the world...

Hmmm...probably need to post some of my 55-01
