Thanks sblueplanet. I don't understand why it's not selling - a brand new Stingray for £400!

Hi Pete Yes they're still available. The tension statistics mean nothing to me either! Speak soon Cheers Pete

Hi Pete I'm afraid I've no info on the Laklands as there's nothing on the packet. The D'Addario s state 174.29lbs total set tension. Cheers Pete

I seem to have acquired several sets of 45-105 nickel plated round wound strings but I've now changed to playing 45-100s. So the following are for sale. All brand new, round wound, never been on any bass and still in the original wrapping. Each set priced at £12 (inc postage) or £10 plus postage if that sounds better. [b]Dunlop BDN45105 (2 sets)[/b] [s]Lakland Medium Custom Wound [/s][b][s]([/s]SOLD)[/b] [s]D' Addario XL EXL 165 [/s][b](SOLD)[/b] [s]Fender 7150M Pure Nickel 45 - 105 [/s][b](SOLD)[/b]

Buyer has backed out so back up again. Still open to offers.

Sensible offers anyone?

I used to have one of these in blackburst. They are great basses with really comfortable necks and a whole variety of tones courtesy of the 3 band eq. GLWTS

Thanks sblueplanet. Yes, I think it's a good price, too, as it's in brand new condition. As you say, it's a Stingray at a fraction of the cost.

PM not received but it has been sold in the meantime.

As I've sold my upright I've no longer any use for this. I bought it new a couple of years ago so it's still in mint condition. Comes with the original fittings, packaging and instructions. A bargain at £100 including postage within the UK.

Further price drop

Good job I'd put the Hoover round just before I took the pics!

My NOS 64 CS Jazz arrived with the guards fitted because I didn't specify otherwise. It also left an impression in the nitro when I took the bridge guard off. It's a superb bass to play and well worth he money.This is a real bargain. GLWTS

Price drop to £495

A Stingray in mint condition for half the price of new one? No one interested. Have I pitched my price too high???

Could this be a Japan non export model? The description I've read about them is exactly as this one - i.e. dot markers on the fingerboard, scratchplate and chrome control plate with conventional jack socket.

Bump for a bargain. These are £729 in Guitarguitar.

Very under-rated basses these. I have one in Ivory and it's a super bass. Best of luck with the sale.

Look up Ed Friedland's review of the Ray 34 on youtube for a firm recommendation.

For sale is my Ray 34 in black with matching headstock and rosewood fingerboard. A bargain at[s] £550[/s] now [s]£495[/s] [s]£450 [/s] £400 I bought this only a few months ago but I find I'm just not using it as my CS Jazz arrived at about the same time and that's become my 'go to' bass. To quote the website: [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]"The iconic StingRay bass continues to dominate stages and studios around the world. The no nonsense design, the tones from the 3-band preamp and pickup, the ash body, the familiar oval pickguard has supported the most important music of our generation. No denying the impact the StingRay bass has had on bassists and music in general.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Times New Roman][size=3][color=#000000]Using the same materials & components as the original, the Ray34 pays respect to the StingRay legacy. Lightweight ash bodies, Music Man® designed active 3-band preamp, Alnico magnet humbucking pickups, hard maple necks, heavy duty Music Man® designed bridges and saddles.[/color][/size][/font]" As you can see from the pictures, it's in brand new condition without a mark on it. In fact it still had the protective film on the pick guard when I bought it. It comes with the original padded gig bag, all the tools and swing ticket. This is sale only as I'm looking to use the cash to fund another purchase. I don't want to courier this as I don't have a spare hard case to send it in but a meet up within 100 miles of Leeds is possible for the cost of the petrol.
