Anybody wanna trade?

[spectorbassguy]

I've been playing the heck out of my GrapeRay 5 and every time I pick up my Bongo it just doesn't cut it for me the way my SR5 does. I can't believe I'm doing this but here goes.....

My Bongo 5 H/SC in Candy Red with 2 p/g's (black pearl and white pearl). G&G Vintage HSC. Almost minty fresh except for a tiny chip (smaller than 1/8") on the end of the headstock. Dunlop Straploks installed + original strap buttons included. Bought new May 2004 from Bass Central.

I'm only interested in trading for your StingRay 5. Will consider many colors but I am real fond of Natural, Vintage Sunburst, Copper and various sparkles. Maple or rosewood fretboard OK.

My Bongo can be found at:

I know, it's freaking me out too. Wish I needed another fretless but mine's sounding too sweet! I've had one offer from a guy in OK city on a vintage sunburst SR5 trade. Waiting on pics now so we'll see.....

If only I had a StingRay 5. that Bongo would be mine.

This will require some more thought on my part....but what do you think??

In the event of a trade, I will say that Chris is great to deal with Todd. He bought my goldRay and paid quick. Easy, easy, easy transaction.

AAAAA++++++++++++++++??

Oh man, CGworkman (hey, that rhymes! ), I forgot how stunning your SR5 looks!

 

[Mobay45]

It does look great Chris. Do you know there are about 4 HB SR5s on Ebay right now. Kind of like when you walk through our body shop and see almost all black or white cars here.

 

[Dees]

those are 2 VERY nice basses. Good luck, both of you

 

[spectorbassguy]

Oh crap I knew this would happen!!! I am just mid-deal with a Pitter on a Natural SR5 with tort (actually one of Bov's and Scott Armybass's ex-basses). Not sure if it's final yet but I'll keep ya updated!
Chris that is one BEEOOTIFULL bass and I will be interested if the Natural doesn't happen. Thanks Man.

 

[spectorbassguy]

The deal is done (Sorry Chris). Traded for the Natural SR5 with Pitter Harry Magalong. Pics here (except it now has a nice tort p/g).

No prob. The more I thought about it the more I was deciding aginst it. I really love my SR5.

Well I played her for the last time last night. Man the finish is in great shape! I'm thinking "what am I doing trading this?" Then I picked up my GrapeRay 5 and remembered what I was doing!

Heh, don't go changing your mind now--Harry's already Paypal'd me for the mint pickguard.

 

[TSanders]

Does that mean youre getting a tort for the white whale?? That would be yummy.

Too late to change my mind - UPS on its way to pick up that 30 lb. package of love!
