Sterling StingRay Shortscale

This is my Sterling StingRay shortscale bass. It is in good condition and plays and sounds superb. 

I’m selling a few basses as I bought something a bit expensive! 

When I bought it the bass had some neck dive and so I replaced the tuners with some old  Hipshot ultra-lites I have in my spares box. The eagle eyed will spot that one tuner is a USA version and this is because the imported versions are not reversible. I’ve kept the original tuners if you wanted to return them to the bass I’ll return it to stock and sell it for £415. 

The neck has had luminous position markers - front and side - installed. This was prior to my purchase. It’s been done well but I must say they aren’t something I find particularly useful although they look pretty in the dark! 

There are minor dings and some corrosion to the small scratchplate screws. Other than that there are some cosmetic flaws to the neck and a small ding on the underside of the rosewood board - nothing that gets in the way of playing. See pics. There is a line on the back of the neck that isn’t a scratch or flaw but a grain mark in the wood. 

Great little bass. Very lightweight at around 3.5kgs. Nice punchy sound. 

Pickup preferred as there isn’t a gigbag. I can post at buyer’s cost however. UK only. No trades. Thanks!

I fitted Hipshots to my old one too, light as a feather (I kept them when I part exed it though, now residing on my Squier 40th anniversary P ).

How's the action ?

I couldn't get mine as low as I wanted it.
