Sterling by Music Man SS Short Scale Bass - NOW £400! - *SOLD* £450 Desborough

[tazza1]

***NOW SOLD***

 

UPDATED:

With my temporary contract nearing it's end I need to start thinking about selling again so this is reduced for the last time to £400. If it doesn't sell this time I'll withdraw it & put some of my other basses up for sale as I'm not going to let it go for any less.

 

After being made redundant in February luckily I have now found another job. Unfortunately it's only temporary & as I've had very little money coming in I'm going to leave this up for sale for a little while longer in the hope that it sells & I can catch up a bit.

 

So here is my Daphne Blue Sterling by Music Man short scale Stingray for sale.

It is in excellent condition with no marks at all having only been played at a couple of gigs.

It comes complete with a Sterling gig bag.

I’m offering this at a cheap price for a very quick sale as I really could do with the money.

I’m happy to pack this up for you to arrange your own courier to collect (by prior arrangement)

from near Kettering in Northamptonshire

I have priced this low to sell as they  retail at between £699 and £749 without the gigbag

Hi, is this still available?

Hi sorry for the late reply - yes it is still available.

I just recently got the Olympic White one and am blown away by how good it is! 
Much as I'd love another...

Is the body smaller than a 34" scale Stingray?

I'm not sure as I don't have one to compare it too. I'll see if I can find anything online.

Yes, it is. I had one, so I can attest to this. Also, if you look at the photos, you came see that curved control plate and bridge (both full sized) sit closer together than on the full size ‘Ray.

I've got one in OW...Great little basses...lacks nothing in the tone department and so easy to play. 

Personally I think £400 is a bit on the low side and if I didn't already have one I would be looking for someone whose kidney I could sell to snap this up.

Bargain for sure.

Thanks mate - it is a low price but it's one of my higher value basses & I'm going to need to be able raise some money shortly unless I can find another job, which, at my age I think is going to prove to be quite difficult.
