Musicman Stingray Special! *SOLD* £1500 Margate

[jay-syncro]

 

Next up for grabs is my beautiful Musicman Stingray Special. This is the latest iteration of one of the best basses ever made. The modifications and upgrades made to the Special basses really are a substantial step up in terms of overall quality and tonal flexibility, plus they don't weigh as much as a heavy thing anymore! The roasted maple neck is absolutely gorgeous, it feels slimmer/faster than my previous Stingrays. The bespoke hardware is spot on, lightweight but substantial, and the electronics are super quiet and refined, while still allowing you to go into Stingray widow-maker mode when required! 

This bass is in in amazing condition, still has the plastic film on the scratchplate!

I played one of these new Stingrays  recently and they really are superb.  Effortlessly punchy and full of attitude, just like a good Stingray should be.

I can post this if required, make me an offer I can't refuse 😁

An eagle eyed Basschatter noticed that the string alignment looked slightly off in the original photos. I can confirm that the bridge saddles were slightly off-centre (they aren't fixed to anything at the saddle end). A quick nudge and all is well again. 10 OCD points awarded to said Basschatter 😁

Yeah, I imagine it’s to do with the omission of the massive studs from the old bridge design.

Very beautiful bass, all the same.

Great bass and great price. Sadly I don't have enough dough for it either!

GLWTS and have a bump on me!
