I’d seriously consider that Sterling if I hadn’t shifted to a 5-string. I heard one being played in a rootsy rock band recently and it sounded really good. 
I don’t reckon it’s a roasted neck though. Too light in colour. Also the serial checker doesn’t list it as roasted.

Guitar Guitar being overly generous with a discounted damaged Sterling SUB StingRay.

They missed a trick. Just advertise it as having a custom relic finish, and add £500 to the price instead.

Dan Armstrong plexi/lucite replica.

It’s there or thereabouts and probably weighs the equivalent of an 8x10 on your shoulder, but it’s still a cool looking thing!

Quite fancy that, daft really.

Also this one, a bit pricey but looks in fantastic condition, Ibanez Musician

Ibanez Musician M924 1981 - Natural https://reverb.com/item/71047193?utm_source=android-app&utm_medium=android-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=71047193

...except the ad fails to mention it was stripped of its Dark Stain finish. The area around the serial number still shows the original colour of the back of the neck. It was completely refinished ssve for that little bit on the back and the front logo. There are no lefties in any other finish than Dark Stain. I've owned three of these and know my Musicians :)

 

Whoever did it did a beautiful job, but it's not original and incredibly overpriced.

I suspected so... £600 or thereabouts and I'd be tempted.

If only the shipping costs were more reasonable I might have been tempted. :)
