Musicman Stingray Special 4 Charcoal Sparkle: the party continues! - *SOLD* £1900 Northampton / London / Can Drive A Bit

[Ander87]

... Aaaaand the other one is here! for those that didn't read my previous sale here, the time has come for my Rays and I to bid adieu.

It's been a great great time (as my absence here has shown) but bills, renovations, a new motorcycle and others mean I have to let go of something.

 

Notes:

 

- Colour is discontinued.

- This series is on Swamp Ash body - newer ones (the £3.2k+ of today are 'select hardwood' - unspecific). Board is ebony, neck on roasted maple.

- This bass does NOT have the cutout for controls on the back unlike the new ones (less plastic covers... more wood?)

- Bass is 4kg, I'm picky for weight and can pull off 4hr rehearsals with it super super comfortably. Offered with absolutely all case and candy.

- Hipshot detuner added on the original tuner - can be reversed easily and without troubles.

- Original pick guard, 3 layer matt black and single layer matt black pickguards included, flat AND round Daddario NYXL and Chromes as new included, same as dunlop strap locks

- Super mint condition with no blemish that I may spot, perfectly adjusted and cleaned with Music Nomad suite.

- Serial: September 2018.

 

Neck is super smooth and the preamp is incredibly versatile, P, J bass sounds... it's done all my round wound recordings in studio to date.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can here it here, clean, gritty and pushed distortion in the middle 8 part of this song (2:26):

 

 

I've something arranged and bills so I need the money - no trades and can hear offers - I reserve the right to withdraw or sell it to what I consider to be a good home. 

 

Thank you for drooling my post.
