Musicman Stingray 40th Anniversary "Old Smoothie" - ON HOLD £1350 Cwmbran

[rhysyjob]

For Sale - Dec 2016 Musicman 40th Anniversary Stingray in immaculate condition. 

One of the original limited run with the signed certificate from Sterling Ball and all the case candy.

The only reason I am selling this (with a heavy heart) is that I originally bought it to tuck away in the house as a treasured home bass, but I've come to realise that I won't gig it and its only been out of its case about ten times in two years! Im happy for someone to come and check its immaculate condition because it is completely as new so you'er saving a fair chunk on a new one.

Happy with collection or payment by BT Or Paypal Gift.

No Trades Thanks

UK Courier £20 

European courier - TBD

@jorisj emailed me recently asking if I’d sell my one, might be good to contact him.

These are such great basses, and very unique in the MM Stingray family. This is a really good deal too, that’s an absolute steal of a price.
