Pre EB Musicman Sabre - another PRICE DROP

[paulbkeeves]

Selling on behalf of a trumpet player friend of mine, a Pre Ernie Ball Musicman Sabre.

Serial number C0028xx

I must say, it's not in bad nick for a bass that's 35 years old, it certainly hasn't had much use in the last 10 years which is why it is up for sale (plus of course, he has his beady eye on a new trumpet and needs to gather a few pennies!).

The bass is currently in Berlin but for any potential UK buyers I will be traveling back to the UK on 9th November to the Birmingham area and could bring the bass along then. Of course, shipping is also an option.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Price: 2000EUR / 1600GBP

NOW 1500£

First ones left the factory in December 1978, according to MM.

I agree, I always fancied a 'Ray in my youth but as the years have gone on, the more I've liked the Sabre. You don't see enough of them around and it's a shame they don't make the bass version anymore.
