The guitar sold on Reverb today. Thank You for your interest.

I listed it on Reverb today and the estimated shipping is around $150

….but I’m no longer looking to trade for a Schecter

Yes it is.

I lowered the price to $600 + shipping. However, I cannot edit the contents of the post to reflect the new price.

Looking to sell or trade my SBMM Ray34. I purchased this bass a couple of months ago and I just can’t stand the maple fretboard. I thought I would get use to it but I did not. This bass is like new and sounds amazing! Price is $700+ actual shipping OR I am interested in trading for a Schecter...

Price is $325 + actual shipping costs Got this bass brand new about 7 months ago. Thought I would like the thin neck but I prefer a different style. This bass is literally in new condition. It hung on the wall for a long time but it needs to go to a good home. It plays and sounds fantastic. A...

I agree and that’s what kind of sparked this whole discussion. My thought was, “If I’m going to sell this one, do I want to stay with SBMM or switch to something else.” That’s why I was asking for opinions, which I also realize is a very personal thing for each person. I’m still so new to this...

I realize it is probably the lamest reason to not "connect" with a bass (or any instrument) but the fact is, we are obviously all different and certain things click for some while it does not for others. I can't speak for all, but I believe most of us have a "look" that we prefer, which in...

I have tried 2 in my area and they basically said, "You don't want to do that" and listed several reasons. Maybe THEY didn't want to do that.

I like your perspective, Sir! Very common sense, as it should be. I purchased the SBMM after doing tons of research and talking with seasoned bassists here and on other forums. It fit what I was looking for (in my mind) at the time and unfortunately, I couldn't try one locally, so I didn't have...

I actually agree with you and I do not want to necessarily just follow a "trend" but my thought process (though it may be shallow) is, if so many people use Fender as their "go to" equipment, there must be a reason. Taking into account celebrity endorsements, fan loyalty, traditional values...

As many of you know, I recently purchased a SBMM Ray 34 and after much consideration (and playing), I’m just not feeling it. I can’t “connect” with this guitar. It is awesome in almost every way but it’s just not for me. For one, I just can’t get past the unbalanced look of the maple fretboard...

Sterling by Music Man Ray34 This bass is in excellent condition. Nothing wrong with it. Everything works. Neck is straight and action is great. It sounds and plays awesome!! It is a very solid and well built guitar. I purchased it a few weeks ago and it’s just not my style. I can send more...

Just dropping a line to say, Hello. I just started taking bass lessons about 2 months ago. I played drums for 30 years and was getting burned out, so I picked up a bass in Guitar Center and that was all it took. Since then, I now have a Schecter Stiletto Extreme 4 & an Ibanez SR300e. I am...
