Kaiu Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 (edited) Hi Everyone, I bought this beautiful instrument from Guitar Center in June while over in the USA on a 'business' trip. Although I love the sound of it, it just doesn't cut it with the band and I keep going back to my MusicMan Sterling. So unfortunately this has to go. It's been hardly used, other than in my bedroom and a handful of gigs when I tried it out. Other than a few scratches where my belt rubbed on the back (you can see how little they are from the photo) there are no major dings or dents. Bear in mind the bass has caught a few reflections so don't be put off, if you are unsure I am quite happy to take more photo's! It comes with a Fender Hardcase (incl. two copies of the key for the case, the allen keys and the cloth that came with it) £550 [attachment=16885:IMG_4579.JPG][attachment=16884:IMG_4577.JPG] [attachment=16883:IMG_4574.JPG][attachment=16882:IMG_4573.JPG] [attachment=16881:IMG_4571.JPG][attachment=16880:IMG_4570.JPG] [attachment=16879:IMG_4569.JPG][attachment=16887:IMG_4572.JPG] Thanks, I live 15miles South East of York, collection preferred. However I am prepared to deliver if you are within an hour or so. I am not prepared to post it, as I am not desperate to sell. I'd rather sell to someone face to face and avoid all the hassle of posting. Ed Edited December 17, 2008 by Kaiu
martthebass Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 Glad to hear it's still going well with the Sterling Ed. Tell the band this is the Sterling's 'more polite' cousin and use it on the 'softer' numbers
Kaiu Posted December 5, 2008 Author Posted December 5, 2008 (edited) Yeah I love it, I've added a hipshot and now I use it for pretty much everything. So easy to play. But I did use the Jazz for a couple of the slower numbers, however we aren't gigging for a couple of months while we sort out the next album, so I'm freeing up cash for christmas. Having 5 younger brothers isn't cheap! Ed Edited December 5, 2008 by Kaiu
Guest BassKS Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 So is this one of those 2008 models? it certainly has a High mass vintage bridge but then you mentioned omething HIPSHOT.... could you clarify?
Guest BassKS Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 looking at the serial no Z8 answers my question.
Kaiu Posted December 8, 2008 Author Posted December 8, 2008 Hi, Sorry for the confusion, I haven't modified this bass at all. The hipshot was installed onto another bass I own, one that I bought off martthebass. Ed
