  1. Bought a stringray fretless from Tarman1977

    I like the instrument I have received.
    The instrument was safely packed shipped quickly from Ireland to Germany.
    The overall condition of the insturment and a repair of the headstock was properly described.

    Unfortunately the instrument has 2 extra holes in the neck pocket which made me overly suspicious and I posted this here:

    [i]"it was supposed to be a pre-eb 1979 model but it turned out that a possibly pre-eb neck was attached to a probably 87 EB body.

    while the transaction itself was very smooth - the actual item was not as described (pre-eb) and left me with a potential loss of a couple of hundred quid.

    I have to say though that I have not contacted Tarman1977 about it so he had no chance to amend and I could have asked in advance for some pics of a disassembled instrument.

    However: not cool"[/i]

    Tarman1977 convinced me that he did not leave out infos or gave wrong infos according to his knowledge and that my assumption was wrong that a pre-eb neck has been attached to a 87 body.

    I am not happy about the extra holes but otherwise fine. As the instrument's headstock has been repaired anyway it is not a big deal regarding the value of the bass I think.

    I should have really asked about pics of a disassembled instrument in advance which would have revealed any oddities and avoided potential misunderstandings.

    Tony did his best to clarify the situation and I hope that my previous post has no negative effect on his activities here.
