bassatnight Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) OMG I am over the moon, I have been looking for a bass to replace a recent sale (one out one in) and I was happily trawling through the Bass shop websites and thought I'd have a look at what Stingrays they had when I saw this headline - 2006 Ltd Edt Musicman Stingray in Black with gold trimmings, I have been after one of these babes since they were released but they have been out of my price range and as rare as hens teeth. Quickly checked the bank account and sweated buckets as the browser took ages to go through the buying process and just got the e-mail confirmation thats shes mine! Only thing left is to try and convince her in doors it didn't cost too much, but being all black and gold I think she won't buy it! looks liek it may cost me additional shoes and a night out for her! ;-( Edited September 11, 2010 by bassatnight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassatnight Posted September 11, 2010 Author Share Posted September 11, 2010 Hi Jon, I have been after one of these for so long and its a rare life keeper, now a Fender Deluxe P and my life will be complete although I may have save up for quite a while now! ;-) Steev.[quote name='jonthebass' post='952617' date='Sep 11 2010, 12:08 PM']Good Man!

Kiwi Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 nice score - the black n gold were easy to find for a while but supply seems to have dried up. Bass Central had some that seemed difficult for them to shift for a while. I fancied the 5 string version for a while... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machines Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 I think I need to see it out of the case, the interior is making my eyes hurt . Then again my Dad has a Les Paul Gold Top with a case that has bright pink fur lining.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebass66 Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Bling! Thats actually a very funky lookin MM...not normally a fan....Good work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassatnight Posted September 11, 2010 Author Share Posted September 11, 2010 Always loved the black and gold finish, takes me back to watching Henry Thomas on Rockschool back in the day with his Yamaha BB5000 in black and gold. Oh well thats the gass gone for a while..... unless theres a US Deluxe P out there...;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're a better player than he was on that show though! Still, it's always awesome to get the bass you've been dreaming of (for me, it's Kubicki Ex Factors). Hope you enjoy it! Just a word of warning...don't sell it! I traded my first Kubicki and regretted it later...took me nearly 4 years to find another one!

SignsOfDelirium_bassist Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Wow! first MM I've ever really liked...Very nice! Is it just me and my dodgey eyes, or are the pole pieces gold too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
