SOLD MusicMan Cutlass I Natural Finish. Early 1983 2000 £/Negotiable

[Manfred741]

Hello;

For sale this beautiful MusicMan Cutlass I !( Yay; 2 cutlass for sale on the same forum... lol)
I bought it 4 years ago from a Dutch guy at 2600 €.
I Want to sell it because i 'd like to get a Cutlass II ( would be the ultimate bass to me ) or a Musicman Sabre Pre eb

I think everybody knows what is a Musicman Cutlass.. a Stingray Pre-Eb with a Modulus Graphite Neck ( over 500/600 Cutlass I produced)

This bass is in great shape for an almost 30-years old bass; excepts few minor scratchs ( nothing serious)
Everything is original (except the pickguard maybe, it seems in a too good shape for 30 years !)
There is some screw missings for the tuners ( see pics; it was in this condition when i bought it); but strings stay perfectly tuned and tuners don't move at all !

Neck isn't perfeclty straight; but action is really low without any frizz ,except on the 19st fret on the A string ( frizz a little)

It sounds killer !
The stingray sound with more punch :
Check my soundclip here !
(Bass straight into computer, no EQ (but on-board preamp, no compressor or whatever...)

Amazing! You wait around for years hoping to pick up a Cutlass.

You give up hope.

Then two turn up in a week on your favourite forum - and one in your own back yard!

.....and hey! By tomorrow the other Cutlass will be residing in my front yard

Bump for my Cutlass brother

Thx pal

I waited 3 years before getting this one; and 'im defintely conquer by graphite neck + pre eb stuffs; that's why i'd like a Cutlass II, but this bass is just one of the best "stingray" i had try !!

Congratulations for your "new" instrument, you won't regret it ( even if it's not mine lol !); these basses are awesome

If I had the cash I'd have this and the fretless pre EB in a flash, sadly I do not

Have a pre EB bump on me though

[Manfred741]

Thanks !
(Bump !)

I really picked a bad week to go on holidays with limited internet access... can't believe that two of these came and went in the same week... talk about bad luck
