SOLD 1978 MM Stingray, nice condition £1920

[Hooch]

I'm selling my all original late (december) 1978 Stingray. The bass is in great condition for a 40-year old instrument. Some chips on the coat of the ash body here and there, and that's all. 

Neck's straight, trussrod's stiff, but has a lot of life left assuming my luthier - just have a look to the bullet position. Low action without fretbuzz (2mm on 12th fret). Comfy C shaped neck, thin frets OK.

Not-so-common weight for an old Stingray: 8.8lbs/4kg 

Great sounding bass, with dead silent electronics - preamp is the epoxy version - which provides this unique Stingray growl, but warmer tones too. Definitely more flexible than later Stingrays. 

£1920 / 2200 euros, comes with (non-original) case. I live near Paris and am happy to ship the bass in a strong parcel - shipping fees at buyer's expense.

Thanks for your comments, it's a nicely yellowed beaut, and a cracking bass too.
