Hi all! I recently joined - what a wealth of knowledge on here. I wish I would have known about it sooner!

I'm selling my lefty stingray 5 string. It's gorgeous, but I need to let it go. I bought it about a year ago, from [as far as I know] the original owner.

No issues whatsoever - this bass is almost like new. No scratches, no dents, no mechanical or electrical issues [I actually had the pickups reconditioned when I bought it]. I've probably played it less than 30 hours total. It's never been gigged, and has lived in smoke and pet free houses its entire life. Comes with hardshell case, extra set of strings, hex wrenches, and a cleaning cloth.

I know I'm a newbie here, but I've been on ebay for 11 years and have 100% feedback rating. [ebay ID: soupmoose].

PM for pictures, or with an offer! Just fyi, I may be in the market for a chapman stick [either lefty or righty]. Obviously, I'd be trading up for that :) .

You should let us know what the bass looks like. ;)

Finish color, pickguard color, fingerboard wood, matching/non-matching headstock, etc.

or don't be shy to post pics here.

andrew: you're right! i was at work at the initial time of posting and i didn't have any pictures with me. see below for two [rather poorly lit] shots. they looked fine on my camera!

the body is i believe "blue pearl" [matching headstock], and the pickguard "white pearloid". neck is maple, if i'm not mistaken. i'll snag the serial number when i get home tonight.

I'm curious: what would be the procedure for reconditioning the pickups? Is that just cleaning and polishing the pole pieces?

i'm not sure. the phantom pickup became detached somewhere in transit from the original owner, so i sent it to ernie ball and they remounted it, and i guess cleaned all the contacts? my point was that they probably won't let it leave their hands not working to spec!

my bad, i didn't know if that was proper etiquette or not! i'm asking $950 including shipping.
