mrcrow Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) i bought this around 2 1/2 years ago off ebay and was pleased with the pristine condition and have kept it and cared for it since serial number E50436 straight from ernie ball's customer service guy, Dan: "This lovely white StingRay 5 was built on 1/13/06. Shipped to Midtown Music, Decatur, Georgia." it comes with the standard case and the bass is fitted with straplocks i may consider a trade down market as i am not playing a lot and if i do will go back to a 4 string i am in southwest manchester eccles way if anyone wants to view and try otherwise an extra for postage i would have to charge and this would be at net cost insured £850 i hope is a fair price for this instrument plus the delivery more pics here [url="http://flickr.com/photos/34963887@N02/sets/72157613201772833/"]click for flikr and run the slideshow[/url] additional shots added 16/02/2009...forgot to include these [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [url="http://img261.imageshack.us/my.php?image=93898271dr4.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img141.imageshack.us/my.php?image=89526569qc0.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img141.imageshack.us/my.php?image=79457080ie0.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img141.imageshack.us/my.php?image=64471484ip6.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img141.imageshack.us/my.php?image=41085811zu3.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img261.imageshack.us/my.php?image=89332979ro7.jpg"][/url] Edited March 10, 2009 by mrcrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
