I have a MM Stringray II in superb condition (not quite mint - small crack - 2/3mm - on pickguard from one screwhole) which has been safely stored away unplayed for 5 years. Active electrics fine! No case though (tried to get one but it's too long for standard cases). No idea what it's worth - I paid £550 in 1995. As everyone knows, it's a dream to play but heavy by today's standards.
ihave one too. its an 70s model in ash with blackpickguard
at the moment i´m trying to find a picture in the net to show another friend! i´ve been trying to get it listet on the musicman homepage for thievery protection, but thats not possible there. maybe if some more guys write them, so they may do so! i´ve mine since mid 90s and i payd 1140DM(germanmarks)and it has an label from an groningen/holland guitarshop, for it! in the earlier jears i saw some on a musician outdoormarket for between 600 and 1100€ but i actually dont know at wich rate they where selled, and also its a few years ago!
iv, seen totally5 or 6 my counted within.
actually its the last jazzmasterstyle guitar build by leo himself as the owner of a guitar producingfactory in his lifetime. as i know there is no rebuilded, or newer rebuilded jazzmastertype before his death!
it gets a lot worth! its beautifuller than any later builded MM, and is an real fender!
i have an picture showing leo working on my guitar! and i´m shure that its exactly mine!!

I actually have one, White pickgard and yellowish/wood clear finish... and i receantly came about to know it's actually one of the first 200(not certain) guitars made by Leo Fender when Musicman predated Ernieball.
But sorry to say it's not in mint condition, I never knew it was a good guitar until a couple of moth's ago...
I can send you pictures if you wish.

I have one. It is brown, in a strat shape although unlike a strat, it is as heavy as lead and has a pre-amp.
I am sure it predates Ernie Ball and I have a feeling it is an original Leo from his early days in MusicMan. Ernie Ball’s site pays little if any regard for that part of MusicMan’s history. Do you know a web site? Or any clues at all?
I also have one... clear finish (natural wood) email me if you want to see pictures.: : I AM DESPERATE TO FIND ONE OF THESE GUITARS IN IMMACULATE COND. PLEASE LET ME KNOW. NOT BASS GUITARS!!! SIX STRING ELECTRIC.
