FT Vintage 1979 Music Man Bass Stingray "MUST LOOK" - TalkBass Forums

That's probably the most exceptional vintage 'Ray I've seen for trade or sale in the recent years.

FYI, that post on TalkBass has closed. The current owner changed his mind and is keeping it (smart gentleman). It was a beauty, though and drew plenty of "what are you THINKING?" comments that may have persuaded him to keep it around awhile longer.

Bongo on USA eBay

Well road worn and full of mojo but nonetheless a bargain for any Bongo lovers out there and if I was in the US I would buy this straight away and give it a loving home.

Don't miss it!!!!!!

There is a sparkle black Sterling on eBay right now with a BIN of $799. It appears to be a pawn shop, so buyer beware, as perhaps the condition may not be as good as stated.

FYI, there is quite a nice selection of StingRay 4-stringers out on eBay right now, especially if you're interested in something 1991-ish or older. A nice natural finish/rosewood, a couple of vintage sunburst/maples, a black/maple, a trans teal and a couple others IIRC. 2- and 3-banders are represented... oldest one I saw goes back to 1977!

Just type "musicman bass" into the search window and enjoy. No one is giving these things away but it seems like there are quite a few options on there right now.

Doesn't mean he'll get anywhere near that of course, and I hope he doesn't. I realize it's an open market and all that but something about this sort of opportunism doesn't sit easily with me.
