If you are lloking to date the bass try this link - [url="http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/TOWN8019/"]http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/TOWN8019/[/url] If it's not listed then it should give you a vague idea of age anyway by looking at where your's fits in to the sequence - if not email EBMM directly - just use the support email address on their website. They got back to me within 24 hours with the exact dob for my Stingray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budget bassist Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Post the number in [url="http://www.ernieball.com/forums/music-man-basses/1254-music-man-serial-number-database.html"]this[/url] thread on the EBMM forum, one of the mods will get back to you fairly sharpish with it's DOB, colour and where it was originally shipped to.

budget bassist Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 (edited) I'm not digging it too much anymore I really want a markbass, they sound so transparent yet awesome just set flat thanks a LOT simon1964 (only joking ) Though i have found it to cut through fairly well at gigs, so i'm not complaining too much Edited January 23, 2009 by budget bassist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
