Yeah, someone tried to sell this to me on Craigslist today. Funny, he was willing to drive from Portland Oregon to Seattle WA, just to trade me his STINGRAY for my g&l l2500 tribute! He must have really liked my bass!! But once i said he'd have to buy it... changed his mind. Unfortunately he stopped talking once I said I would love to trade, if it was an actual Ernie ball stingray.
