He has already sold it. Half price. Crazy...

Hi Guys, As I want to keep only one 5, I think I will keep this one as it has something really special, I will sold my Status instead. Sorry for this, I know many of you were interested in. Cheers

Thanks a lot! You must be Charles isn't it? I recently spoke with a nice BC member who is actually the one who brought it back from Canada few years ago. Small world... He keeps great memories about this bass.

Also on eBay : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-1989-MusicMan-Stingray-5-custom-color-/301628765710? £950 for BC members incl free shipping.

The refinish was made by a french luthier, can't remember the name but I have to check into my old emails.

Some more close ups showing the bird eyes mapple neck.

I am not allowed to upload some more pics (I have severals showing how beautiful the neck is) so feel free to contact me and I will send it directly to you. Cheers

Here is my beloved MusicMan Stingray 5 from 1989. From my point of view, the best period for Musicman featuring an absolutely gorgeous bird eye mapple neck, 3 bands equalisation, the legendary alnico pickup and a lovely dark rosewood fingerboard. The original color was a dark green changed for a beautiful sonic blue (costed £250). This bass is extremely efficient for any situation, as good in studio or live, it has always make me very happy. Comes with a hard case. Based in London Islington, feel free to come over to try it!

Indeed a very light one! I use to have a candy apple red Precision Special from the same period which was by far too heavy so this one is a real pleasure

Hi guys, I just moved to London. I have to sale my beloved baby : my 1982 Fender Precision Special Walnut. Only 200 made, this one belongs to the first batch of 50 finished completely in clear nitro cellulose lacquer. For the following three production runs of 50 per run, a tinted spray was applied except for the center of the front of the body in a sunburst-like treatment and then the entire body was finished in clear nitro. Active/passive Gold tuner and special bridge Mother of pearl dots 100% beautiful solid walnut body, neck and fingerboard About 9 lb £1950 From my opinion the most beautiful Precision ever made, and the active preamp adds more versatility. You can reach me at 0033 663113651, I live in Islington (highbury islington station)

£1250 I sometimes come to London if it helps
