Shockwave Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Hey guys. I helped out a friend on the weekend and bought a SUB Stingray when he really needed the money, now I need to see if I can get that back! If I cant get rid of at this price I will likely keep it. It's a standard black US made Musicman Stingray missing its pickguard. It has been gigged with scrapes on the body (Which have been filled in with what looks like black nail polish) and the usual paint missing at the headstock end. The truss rod is A-OK. One of the tuners is a little loose. Electronics are fine. Frets have plenty of life left in them. I have stripped the bridge down and given it a thorough clean, cleaned the fingerboard and headstock. I have also given it a basic setup and a brand new set of Picato nickelwound 105-45 strings. The bass sounds awesome, like every SUB I have had and tried they seem better sounding to my ears then true standard Stingrays. I have mislay-ed my camera so have to rely on dodgy phone pics for now. Hoping for local pickup from me in Sutton, London. Would prefer not to ship but will if buyer pays for shipping and accepts responsibility. £300 FIRM, Bank transfer or cash in hand. Will throw in a brand new unpadded gigbag. Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Foxen Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Do the poles come covered, or is that a mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Its completely standard, I believe these turn black when they get older having started out quite dull anyway! Sounds great either way.

Mr. Foxen Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Sort of tempted to get this and black hardware it. Never had a MM in my arsenal before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassist666 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 any idea of the age of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 £300 is a ludicrous price for such a good bass. That's a Stingray in everything but name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
