Sold pending the usual - 2002 Translucent teal green EB Musicman Stingray 3eq + OHSC £795

[ManchesterWill 3]

Price Drop - £650 ono

Hi all,

Having introduced myself a few days ago, it's time to head this way to sell my beautiful 3 band eq EB Musicman Stingray. I bought it in 2002 and it's served me faithfully in a variety of settings over the last 12 years. Diversification (I'm playing 4 and 6 string these days) plus severe underuse, sadly forces sale, and with the money I make from this, I'm hoping to have most of the funds for a slightly lower end second hand Fender Precision and Fender Tele.

The 'Ray is a beautiful translucent teal green (discontinued now I think?!) and has a very comfortable low action. The rosewood fretboard adds warmth to that Stingray punch we know so well. I only have travel scales at home (for suitcases), but I weighed it on the strap and it came in at 4.7kg. It has 4 dings in the paintwork on the underside, as the photo shows, and the expected buckle rash on the back, but for a twelve year old bass, looks almost as good as new from the front. Build quality is just as you'd expect from the factory in San Luis Obispo. Original hard shell case included in price.

Reasonable offers will be considered, might also be interested in trading for a 70s style Fender P (Nate Mendel model esp) + cash. PM me or reply underneath for any more details.

I'm based close to the centre of Manchester (easy bus ride from any train station) and would prefer to trade in person, having never sold a bass online before, but won't rule out arranging delivery at buyer's expense or meeting at a reasonable location.

Cheers,

Will

Back up we go! I know it's not been on long but I've reduced the price having seen what other Rays seem to be going for. Get in touch for any more details

[ManchesterWill 3]

Bump. Great trade offer made recently but am looking more specifically at something like a Mendel P or a Highway 1 P + some cash, or a simple sale. Happy to discuss anything that's just outside of that box

[ManchesterWill 3]

Up t' top again

[ManchesterWill 3]

Keeping this up here till Sat then it's going. Any further offers? Happy to provide any other details needed

still available?

[ManchesterWill 3]

Still available! Potential trade fell through this morning so we're back on

Man if this was a maple board I'd snap this out of your hands so fast. Love teal, and wish they'd bring it back!

Good luck with the sale!

[ManchesterWill 3]

Thanks Dan! It's a beautiful bass, shame it's not got the fretboard you're after. I personally prefer rosewood on a Ray as it mellows the punchy sound a tad, but each to their own hey

[ManchesterWill 3]

Still here, back up we go!

[ManchesterWill 3]

Birthday bump! Anyone want to buy this today and help me buy that Precision I've wanted for so long?! There are a couple on here I'd love to bid for, if only I had the funds! Have a lovely day peeps

[ManchesterWill 3]

Back up again, don't think I'll be getting on to BC for 10 days or so from Sunday, so get in touch next couple of days if you wanna make an offer, otherwise I'll et it drift for a while. Had a trade offer from a local shop which wasn't too bad at all, but would prefer this way!

...Had a trade offer from a Local shop for Local people eh?

[ManchesterWill 3]

Do you work in said shop MB1? When I say local shop I mean it's in Mcr, still a chain instrument shop!

Post holiday bump and a price drop. Having seen a number of very decent Precisions at phenomenally reasonable prices, I'm happy to do a further price drop - £650 or nearest offer. That's nearly a grand less than you'd pay for this new!

Bump

[ChronoBenson 0]

Interested. Any chance of a trade for either a 2011 Fender Standard P in White (maple neck) or a Spector Custom Legend 4 in Bubinga. Both plus cash of course?

[ManchesterWill 3]

PM'd you mate

[ManchesterWill 3]

Still here! Bump for a great bass!

[ManchesterWill 3]

Back up again! Be great to shift this before the end if the summer hols
