Ernie Ball Musicman Stingray 5 H 2007 - £1500 - *SOLD* £1500 Northampton

[chrismuzz]

Musicman Stingray H 5 string bass in an off-white / cream finish, with rosewood fretboard

This is a 2007 model with the Ceramic pickups

3 band active EQ and 3 way selector switch for series/parallel/single coil mode

Weight according to my bathroom scales is 11.2lbs or 5kg. Feels much lighter due to how well balanced it is!

Comes with a Hiscox case as pictured. Very light damage on the outside of the case which is visible in the photos.

Some cosmetic marks on the upper horn as pictured, these can't be seen when you're "wearing" the bass 😅

The tuning pegs aren't shiny like the rest of the hardware, not really sure why as they've been that way for years, but I kind of like it!

 

Really comfortable bass to play, well balanced with a really smooth neck, and obviously the Stingray sound.

 

Collection only please, based in Northamptonshire 

 

Thanks for looking!

Love the colour...

SR5s from that ere are a design classic and I suspect will soon be collector's items far more so than their 4-string counterparts. Beautiful instruments to look at, play, and listen to 👍

Yeah! The EB website lists it as "white", so I'm not sure if this is it's natural colour or if it's happened with age. Either way, it looks cool!

Always found it interesting how totally different these are to the 4 string version. The pickup switch, body contouring and even the pickguard. I don't usually play a 5 string but I feel like it's such an upgrade with the Stingray
