    Hey Sparkle guys, please snag one of these.

    Ive posted this before, and this will be my last time. These two basses are at my local music store. New Old Stock. Not much of a market in Columbus, Georgia for sparkle basses, well except for me, and Im broke.

    Let me know if you want me to get you a price on these, and Ill be glad to help. PM me. I dont work for the music store and dont get any dough for helping them sell, Im just tired of seeing these two sweet basses hanging on the wall.

    Note, these dont have a matching headstock, and of course come with a case.

    Silver Sparkle StingRay:



    Gremlin Green Sparkle Sterling:

    wow, never before have I understood people's obsession with Sparkle finishes. I think those capture it really well though. Oh if only if only.

    Would you take an old 20" TV, a Dan Electro Hodad, a handful of CDs and a diabetic cat for a trade on the Sterling?

    That is mighty nice of you, sir. Mighty nice. Although deep inside, I suspect you wrote that just to further torture me, I am going to try to believe that it was nothing but mighty nice.

    Unfortunately, we'd also have to arrange for a tidy cash gift, too. I've had to turn down more than this bass this month.

    It sucks. As does the prospect of going back to work, but maybe then I'll at least be able to go back to guilt-free bass buying!

    I just got off the phone with the music store, and I have an out the door price in my hand Jason.

    You could shoot me the money and I could have in in my hands when we meet in Atlanta.

    Oh, yeah. PM coming about Atlanta.
