Aharon Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Hello again Basschat peeps, Bought this beautiful Stingray from fellow Bass Chatter BagsieBlue (Martyn). It's a 2band EQ transition era model from the late 80s with a beautiful vintage-tint maple neck and original string mutes. It's been well loved and used and it has the mojo to show it but the scuffs/dings etc are purely cosmetic. It's built like a tank and sounds and plays exactly like a Stingray should. I owned a Stingray many years ago and bought this to relive some of that joy but to my suprise my tastes have changed/mellowed and so I would like to pass it on to a better home where it will get played/gigged. NO TRADES please Will post to UK at buyer's expense or buyer can collect from Cambridgeshire I've had many happy trades buying and selling on here, so feel free to take a look at my feedback in the feedback section. Happy to Answer any questions [attachment=211066:iedvuw.jpg] [attachment=211068:20aqrlv.jpg] [attachment=211069:nx0woy.jpg] [attachment=211070:o77ckl.jpg] [attachment=211067:2uqp15y.jpg] [attachment=211071:swyfr7.jpg] Edited April 26, 2016 by Aharon
Apothem Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) I have two '89s. Having had Rays from pre-EB to recent ones including Classics, I believe Rays from around these years are terrific instruments, especially if you like varnished necks and very low action.

MattM Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Great basses, had an almost identical 88 and it's still the best wooden bass I've ever owned.
walshy Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 The prettiest combination on a MM if you ask me!
Aharon Posted February 15, 2016 Author Posted February 15, 2016 I experienced some difficulty shipping this outside the EU (at no fault of the buyer, he was a genuine guy), so this is back up for sale, UK postage only.
highwayman Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 This baby still going? Does it have the correct hard case?
Thor Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 [quote name='walshy' timestamp='1454875388' post='2973853'] The prettiest combination on a MM if you ask me! [/quote] I'd second that, very nice, very tempting - I do need a Stingray in my life again!
Aharon Posted March 26, 2016 Author Posted March 26, 2016 I don't have access to any scales, but if I were to guess 4.3 - 4.6kg. I have a G&L L2000 that is about 4.1kg and a Gibson Ripper that is 5kg and the Stingray sits somewhere in the middle. Happy Easter all PM me for any questions etc.
