null9er Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) Hi there! Here I am offering my beautiful and quite rare MUSICMAN CLASSIC SABRE in Inca Silber with shell pickguard. Based on the serial number the bass was manufactured on May 20th 2014 in San Luis Obispo (CA, USA) facility. Beside the two special designed humbucker pickups the Classic Sabre features a 5-way-switch and a 2-band-active-EQ. In this way you can easily produce every authentic sound between a Stingray, a Thunderbird and a really good P-bass. In addition the bridge allows for using the string mutes to “simulate” old flatwound strings. Regarding the woods the neck is made from wonderful birdseye maple with a fine rosewood fretboard. The body is made from dense ash. Although the body is quite small the Classic Sabre weighs 4,3 kg. I am really not good in describing sounds and handling, since this is a totally subjective feeling. So please refer to all this professional reviews and videos if you need more information on that. The condition of the bass is very good and well maintained. But there is only a dent on the front of the body, which is visible (please see pictures). Otherwise, the bass shows no signs of use. The MUSICMAN CLASSIC SABRE is located in Germany near Dortmund, but can be shipped Europe-wide. The shipping costs can be split between seller and buyer. Shipping will be securely packed and insured in a hard case. Please ask if you have any questions. I will try to answer immediately. NO TRADES please!!!

dub_junkie Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 My most favourite bass and If I hadn't got another just last week I would be after this one. Mayan Silver/tort/ rosewood makes for a great looking Sabre imo GLWTS! Keir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like that hollow 2 pick up Jazz bass tone but on steroids. Fills out everything underneath nicely. That and the P bass setting using the bridge facing single coil on the neck humbucker. The almost StingRay bridge humbucker tone and the 'Lakland' humbucker + neck single coil still get a look in but it's the other two for now. I find the inbetween positions more practically useful than those on the Fender Dimension HH and StingRay HH, as nice as those both are. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null9er Posted November 21, 2022 Author Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) Sorry guys, I messed up with the exchange rates. Price is 1.700 GBP or 1.950 EUR. I‘ll try to fix this in the title, too. Edited November 21, 2022 by null9er Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
