A really nice Passive short scale bass in Olly White that sounds monstrous, probably due to the Neodymium pick up and excellent electronics. Mahogany body, Maple Neck and beautiful Rosewood Fingerboard.

 

Very easy to play with a low action & weighs a mere 3.5Kg, or 7.7lbs in ‘old money’

 

I’ve changed the bridge barrels for one’s that are a bit smaller in diameter to achieve a lower action, as I think the original MusicMan ones are meant for their long scale jobbies - but the original ones will be included if you don’t mind a higher action and want to swap them back.

 

Can’t see any damage albeit with my old eyes, apart from a few very light marks on the control plate which would probably polish out with a bit of chrome cleaner and overall I would rate the condition as being 9/10 - at least.

 

Controls are Master Volume - with handy Push Volume Boost, Three way pickup selector and Master Tone.

 

These retail at £699 at Bass Direct & £749 at GAK so grab a bargain.

 

WARNING - it’s very hard to put down once you start noodling😂😂

 

Can post to the U.K. Mainland for £25.00 via ExpressAM, before Midday - next day.

 

What MusicMan say………

With easier accessibility, a passive boost, and a single humbucking pickup with higher output neodymium magnets, the StingRay Short Scale offers comfortability without compromise. The versatile pickup configuration includes parallel, true single-coil, and series modes for diverse tonal options. Finished in Olympic White.

 

DYNAMIC TONE CONTROLS
