FS ONLY: Custom "Spy vs. Spy" Stingray (Un)Stealth 4-H w/HSC!

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi,

Here's another unique offering:

I always wanted to have a white 'Ray with black hardware but was informed that there was no such thing as a "custom order" through EBMM. As usual, I had to take matters into my own hands. This was once a SR Stealth 4-H until I stripped the body down and sent it out to Simms Custom Shop for a face-lift. The result is a classic white with an extremely subtle blue-pearl sheen. I'm willing to go out on a limb and say this is a very rare color combo.

The particulars:
  • EBMM Stingray 4-H
  • 3-Band EQ
  • Special Stealth black SR neck with rosewood board and compensated nut
  • Special Stealth black hardware
  • Brand new D'Addario black tapewound flats
  • EBMM molded hard shell case w/ key
  • 9 lbs on the nose!!!
I noticed a tiny check in the finish while trying to capture a ding in the neck near the lower-bout neck-pocket. I also wanted to disclose a small divot (pre-refinish...my bad) near the neckplate and some love-taps on the top of the headstock (which have cleaned up real nice since the pics were taken).

With all this taken into consideration, this is priced to sell at $995 shipped ConUS!

Need cash-O-la, so no trades please.

I also have a minty-fresh like-new Sterling Stealth 4-HS at an equally stupid price here: FS: 2010 EBMM Sterling STEALTH 4-HS w/ OHSC

Porn:












Thanks for looking!

That is incredibly cool. Wish I was funded for a new 4 string. DANG!
... and I dig the "Spy vs. Spy" reference. You really need a second bass, black with white HW...

Thanks for the compliments guys. BTW, most of those marks on the headstock cleaned right up. I also cleaned and conditioned the fretboard. Looks minty fresh now!

I'm glad I own an ATK I really love or I'd be all over this. The cool factor is killer!

Funny, I own an ATK I love and I STILL keep coming back to drool at this. This bass is just dead sexy.
No funds keeps me with my ATK. And I'm happy with her.
(repeats to self - "happy with my ATK, happy with my ATK")

SOMEBODY BUY THIS GORGEOUS BASS!

All PMs answered. Still on the block.

Again, I'm not really interested in trades. And even if I was, it would be limited to Stingrays (Dargies, HS configurations, HH configurations, Classic models).
