Norris Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 (edited) A gorgeous ruby red satin burst SUB Ray5 from Sterling by Musicman I bought this a couple years ago from @KingPrawn of this parish, as my first venture into 5-string territory. I gigged it 2 or 3 times, but it never quite sat right in the mix of my band - so I ended up buying a Sire 5-string P bass, which fits much better. It has since been sitting on a stand in my room getting played only very rarely. I'd now like the floor space back, so time to move it on. There's hardly a mark on it. A very slight scuff on the scratch plate and a little bit of "buckle polishing" of the satin finish on the back. No dents that I could find. I fitted a new set of D'Addario Pro Steel EPS165-5 strings when I first got it (45-135) Copy & paste specs: Model: Ray5 Body Wood: Basswood Body Color: Ruby Red Burst Satin Bridge: Fixed Bridge Pickguard: Black Scale Length: 34" (86.4cm) Neck Radius: 12" (30.5cm) Frets: 22 Frets, Medium Neck Width: 1.77" (45mm) at Nut Neck Wood: Hard Maple Fingerboard: Jatoba Fret Markers: White Dot Markers Tuning Machines: Open Gear Truss Rod: Single Action Neck Attachment: 6 Bolt Controls: 2-band Active Preamp Switching: N/A Pickups: H - 1 Ceramic Humbucker Finally, it weighs in at just over 4.1kg I'm looking for £325. I'd prefer meet up, try out, cash on collection; but we could discuss delivery if needs be. Edit: well this has been up for a few weeks with no bites, so I'm going to hang on to it for a while. I'll probably upgrade the preamp and see how attached to it I feel then Edited October 11 by Norris Withdrawl notes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
