    I would like to play it! Looks like someone missed Sabres.
    Starting to think about returning to bass playing in the very near future.

    Anyone have a picture of that 3-pickup StingRay that was on eBay a year or so ago?

    ok i notice a few things. 1. it doesnt have strap buttons. 2. the neck pickup poles seem to be more exposed and the light seems to be coming from a more strait on angle, while the bridge pickup seems to have more recessed poles. 3. when was honeyburst made? that is an older bridge and im not sure if mm was painting honeyburst at that time.

    It's being sold by the Bass Gallery in Camden. They're a reputable shop, I can't think of a reason why they would fake a picture of a two pickup stingray.

    Yep, I realised that just as I was finishing typing... but, hey, I posted anyway.

    Cool bass. Not sure I would pay that much for it though.
