Sterling by Music Man Ray25CA, £325 - *SOLD* £325 Bristol

[jrixn1]

I'm selling this beautiful five-string StingRay Classic Ray25CA, from Sterling by Music Man.  (Sale only, no trades.)

 

Some specs:

• Body Wood: Mahogany
• Scale Length: 34"
• Neck Radius: 12"
• Nut: 1.77" (45mm)

 

Full specs are here: https://intl.sterlingbymusicman.com/collections/stingray-ray24-25ca/products/ray25-ca?variant=31853459406920

 

There is one modification.  The pickup is wired in series by default, which sounds good but is not the traditional wiring for a StingRay.  It's now been rewired in parallel and I feel it's a lot better - the two-band preamp gives the classic sound and both EQ knobs are much more responsive across their full range.

 

Weight is 4.3kg (9lb 8oz).

 

£325 collected from Bristol, or £345 posted within the UK.  I also travel around for gigs - over the next few weeks I'll be back and forth along the M4 Bristol to London, up the M5 to Birmingham, and down to Brighton - so could possibly meet for a handover.

I can attest to what a nice playing bass this is.  imo a much better bass than the Ray 5 

(The series wiring was something I wanted to change when I had it)

GLWTS!

Lovely bass!

 

There's one of these on Reverb at a similar price, but not such a nice colour, but this does seem a steal - £650 new.  I struggle to play 4, let alone 5 strings, otherwise I would seriously be tempted, but GLWTS anyway.

This was mine. Lovely bass nearly bought it back from Kier. Unfortunately now bought something else or I would of had it. GLWTS.
