paulbkeeves Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) 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£ [attachment=122238:2012-10-28 22.22.25.jpg][attachment=122239:2012-10-28 22.22.37.jpg][attachment=122240:2012-10-28 22.22.52.jpg][attachment=122241:2012-10-28 22.23.07.jpg][attachment=122242:2012-10-28 22.23.17.jpg][attachment=122243:2012-10-28 22.24.28.jpg] Edited November 4, 2012 by paulbkeeves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethFlatlands Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 [quote name='thisnameistaken' timestamp='1352891133' post='1868816'] These are the best looking basses Musicman ever did. [/quote] 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
