Sale Pending: 2018 Music Man Stingray Special in Charcoal Sparkle £1750 Leamington Spa

[Kev]

A somewhat fleeting offering of my 2018 Music Man Stingray Special H 4 string.  A bass has come up on here that I'm extremely keen on, this will be withdrawn on the sale of that.  Absolutely no cash or trade offers.

 

So this is a stunning example of the new StingRay Special basses, bought from Bass Direct used a few months ago.  Early special so still has the lightweight swamp ash body (believe the newer models are heavier and "select hardwood" now) so is a lovely 8.5lb

 

The finish is just incredible and not easy to come across now.  The bass comes with a matte black guard as well as the standard stock b/w/b.  Its also fitted with a matching D Tuner.

Remains in the same condition as bought in, usual swirls on pickguards but thats about it.  Comes with the Music Man hardcase and original E tuning key (machine only), fitted with Optima Gold Strings, which look rather splendid.  I won't post this, happy to drive a reasonable distance to meet up.  Generally trying to avoid house visits/collections at the mo due to Covid and vulnerable household members, so dodgy service station meet ideal.

 

As mentioned, its only going to be available whilst the target bass is available, so recommend you act quickly if you want it

And a shot with the Matte black guard fitted for comparison...

I love this colour. If only my cruddy technique would allow me to play Stingrays a bit more fluently!

Picture's don't do it justice, reacts differently depending on the light on it.  Discontinued colour now too 🌟

Stunning. Wish I had the cash.

Absolute beauty!!!!!!!!!! I have the exact same bass - same year, same finish, which I bought used last year and I can confidently say it's the best bass that I've ever owned and also ever played. These new Stingrays really are that good and I'm not alone in thinking that. The feel, playability and sound is amazing and they're so light for a Stingray that it's frankly kind of weird! @Kev shame you're selling it, whoever buys this in time is in for an amazing, next level-quality bass. So, so good. GLWTS.

Someone asked for images of the back of the bass/neck, so figured I would post them here  Neck is perfect, no dings or dongs on the back etc

 

 

 

Any more needed, please ask!
