Spot The Mistake!

[WillPlay4Food]

I figured since the guy was offering 3 Chris Squire lessons he'd say something like, "It's not a Rick!"

Also, what's the big deal about hitting 100 posts? Do you get a free bass or something?

OK...here's one:

This is a gorgeous Stingray I bought from Davtran about a year ago...

spot the mistake...

 

[maddog]

It's missing the dot on the last fret.

 

[marty]

Yup...it is indeed maddog..well spotted

 

[Davtran]

Here you go guys here's another one

Something has changed??? L K Close.

The obviuos difference is that the encircled "R" following "Sting Ray" is in the upper position. It should be in the lower position.

The one following "Ernie Ball" appears to have a dot rather than an "R" but that may be just the pic itself.

 

[Davtran]

Shucks!

Gav your just 2 clever I think you must live love and dream MusicMan Basses thought it would take longer to sus this one mmm I'll have to be more sneaky

 

[Rod Trussbroken]

I count Rays (instead of sheep) if I have a hard time getting to sleep

 

[Rod Trussbroken]

I want to play too

Way ya go lads:

 

[Davtran]

Good Try Gav!!

Nice edit Gav you moved the screw with the round washer down to the top strings (dunno what its called technically) good edit though you had me going! maybe we could start a competition here I like it!

 

[Rod Trussbroken]

Wrong Dave!. It's a Pre-EB Bass so the string retainer is in it's correct position.

 

[Davtran]

Gav

OOer If I had that bass I would have sent it back! ..your being crafty now cos I havent got a pre ernie ball....let me ponder.

 

[Davtran]

Gav

You removed the filling from the 'music man' part of the logo???

 

[Rod Trussbroken]

>>>>If I had that bass I would have sent it back!

LOL. You'd probably kick yourself if you did. It's a 1976. The owner came across it in a small music store. Brand new, in its original packing box and unopened. It was sold to him as a N.O.S. I also bleeb he only paid the 1976 list price aswell.

One of those thing that only happens once in a lifetime

>>>>You removed the filling from the 'music man' part of the logo???

Nope.

 

[Davtran]

Crikey your more cunning than me! and you made me feel like Rolf Harris without a didgeridoo after that last bit of info about the 76 ray

 

[marty]

The cavity for the truss rod adjustment is missing?

 

[Rod Trussbroken]

Bingo! marty

 

[Colin]

Is it missing the Trademark logo?
