TRADED - REMOVE £1200 Edinburgh

[Robert Manning]

Reducing down to £1000 for a straight sale. 

Location: Edinburgh 

 

Hey, been a while since I done a sale/trade. 

 

So this may be long shot but would love to trade my USA Sterling for a MM Stingray. Reason being I much prefer the thicker neck profile of the Stingray (I regret selling my old stingray so would love one back in the collection!)

 

Sounds similar to the Stingray of course but with a bit more bite in the mids which I think is due to the ceramic pickup - also some extra flexibility with the coil tapping.  I think a trick up the Sterlings' sleeve is engaging the single coil mode; sounding a bit like a bridge pickup jazz with a Musicman tonal vibe. This I love about the Sterling, but I just can't get on with the thinner neck. 

 

bit hard to value this as there are so few around. I am prepared to add cash your way for a trade. 

 

Some minor scuffs, and some buckle rash from the previous owner. 

 

- Had a set up, jack fix, and some internal wiring looked at last year at http://sglguitars.mysite.com

- Newish light gauge slinkies fitted still pretty fresh.

- Brand new official bridge saddles fitted recently curtesy of ahpook (what a guy!!) (the old ones seized) 

- truss rod all good.

 

Any questions, or more photos or anything give me a shout! may be open to other trades. just in person dealing at the moment. willing to travel bit. can come over and take a look, I have a small PJB amp. 

 

Cheers

Robert.

Pretty sure this is the cheapest one in the UK right now, there ain't many to choose from!

 

I love my 4HH, shame EBMM have stripped the sterling range back to 2 colours currently. glwts!

Prepared to offer around 300/400 cash your way for Stingray swap. 🙂

Hi - What's the weight and the neck dimensions of this lovely bass?  

[Robert Manning]

Hey man 

so I can’t say for sure the accuracy of weight but weighing myself and the bass i was getting a difference of 4.4kg but that’s using digital scales and the reading was moving around quite a bit so take that with a pinch of salt. I’m seeing if anyone near me has some decent scales so I can confirm the actual weight. 
it’s lighter than my USA jazz, but heavier than my USA P. I think anyway. 
 

I’ll get the measurements of the neck when I get home from work tonight  cheers
