I'm thinking of selling my '89 Stanley Clarke. If I do I'm going to ask around $2200 for it. Anyone interested. Here's a couple of pictures:

Tim,

Nice looking bass you have there. Cocobolo top/back, yes? Why are you considering letting her go?

I noticed that she has a five pin jack but no dummy pup. Does she have series or sig elecs?

Take care,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

The original owner not only added a second battery with a switch that allows you to toggle between the two (thus never having a battery die mid gig), but he also added the electronics to use an external power supply rather than a battery. This power supply is a Boss unit. I've never even unwrapped it as the batteries have always done fine for me.

I believe it is rosewood. Thinking of selling to pay off some debt - this is an ongoing process.

Tim:
Once again your excellent taste in basses is apparent. If I had the $, I would buy from you again in a heartbeat.

Joe

P.S. I still love the Elan.

Hi Joe,

Thanks, Joe - very kind of you to say so. Really glad to hear your still loving that Elan - that was an incredibly sweet Alembic!

Take care - was nice to hear from you.

What a beautiful bass. I especially like the back up battery idea, brilliant.
Good luck Tim.

Closes soon. Looks like it will be going for around $1500!!

If someone else expresses further interest it should jump. That $1540 must be your reserve, since I know that the bid was at $1K before the last bid that's there (The $1K was my bid!). Who knows how high the current bidder is willing to go....

Good luck!

bsee · « **Reply #12 on:** April 28, 2004, 02:17:37 PM »

Well, $1825 now. Getting more reasonable!

I'll say -thought I was going to be making a charitable donation for awhile there.

Looks like you went from $500 less than you were asking to $500 more. Hard to beat that.

Congratulations on a successful auction, assuming your eBayer is no deadbeat, of course.
