What happens when you drink paint and throw up on a stingray 5?


Recommended Posts

Ewww!!

There again, I think the important line in the description is

Model: StingRay 5
Size: 13-3/8" wide, 1-3/4" thick, 45-3/4" long (34.0 cm wide, 4.5 cm thick, 116.2 cm long)
[b][color="#FF0000"][size=5]Weight: 10 lbs (4.54 kg) - varies slightly[/size][/color][/b]
Body Wood: Ash

and so on...

Just how does he manage to get the weight of the thing to change??

They quote that on the musicman website, not every piece of ash weighs exactly the same :)

[quote name='The Burpster' post='315161' date='Oct 26 2008, 04:30 PM']Wasnt there a thread about this very bass sometime back..... Someone on here had a friend or tutor (somthing like that) that bought a brand new stingray and painted it puke colours

:)[/quote]

that was me! its my old bass teacher's bass. actually a nice bass when you get over the looks. unfortunatly he decided to repaint it before deciding he didn't like it. to be fair it was a boring black with white pickguard before he resprayed it.

and i got the feeling itd be this bass when i saw the thread title lol.

Surely if someone's going to do something like that, they could buy that £30 Stagg musicman copy that someone was selling and paint away.[/quote]


Haha I've already bought that and plan something very similar.

well to get it looking like that you just gotta get a load of colours that appear in puke, spray lots of layers and sand away!

Please post the pictures when you've done so. When I saw it was £30, I wondered about getting it and doing weird things to it like letting my 9 year old paint it. But I have no car and I'd guess that those tiny quaint looking buses that go to Ruby would take quite some time for a round trip.

I will do a thread when it's done I reckon it will take me about a week to do it all.

he was trying to sell it for over a grand in a local shop a while ago

Haha just for that I'm sending him a message.

"Hi there

Can I offer you £500 for this bass?

I think £700 is about the right price for a Stingray in the current climate and a refinish will cost around £200.

Kind regards

Wayne"
