Wednesday bump.

Wednesday bump. This is a great bass. Does no-one have anything interesting to trade? If it doesn't go then I'll have to break it up and sell the parts.

Ruby Tuesday

You ought to come and try the MM Sub 5 that I have on sale. It's what an SR5 should have been.

[quote name='steve-king' post='526557' date='Jun 28 2009, 10:36 AM']Hi, please excuse the ignorance from a novice, but when you say a SR5 profile neck, do you mean as you would find on an Ibanez? Thanks, Steve[/quote] SR5 is a common abbreviation for the "Musicman Stingray 5" or more correctly the "Ernie Ball Musicman Stingray 5", which is a bit of a mouthfull.

I bought this is a fit of madness thinking I needed a spare 5-string but in reality I don't and as my gigging is going to be curtailed shortly it's up for sale again. More picture [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=51796&hl="]at the original thread.[/url] Its history is well known to the Forum. It's a Musicman Sub 5 stripped of its tasteless black paint and electrically upgraded with a custom John East MM style 3-band pre-amp which has bass, treble and Swept Mid. With the latter in its centre detent position you get pretty much a 5-string with a classic 2-band MM sound. I'm pretty sure the neck is exactly the same dimensions and profile as a stock SR5. It comes complete with soft case, original pre-amp, clear scratch-plate. Last time it was up for sale silverfoxnik posted: [quote]This very nice vintage 'Ray look was created by the Beedster and the John East pre was built to his spec too, so it's quite a unique bass. My memory of it is that it had a lot of tonal variety thanks to the sweepable mid e.q. and it was light and comfortable to play.. One other good thing was that for a 34" scale bass, the B string is really excellent on this, as it is on a lot of Stingrays.. Oh, and I sold it on because I wanted a passive 5 string, otherwise I would have kept it. Gave me a bit of nostalgia seeing it just now I must admit and it has had a few BC owners who may well feel the same; Beedster, me, WalMan, JoJo Bass (I think) etc, etc.. So it's done the rounds, but don't let that put you off..It's a good bass!

Good luck with the sale; certainly a lot of bass for the money![/quote] I agree it is an excellent bass. £400 plus postage if required or could be interested in trades, etc. Try me. PS. I hope nick80 won't mind me using his pictures. It's such a nice garden.

Mine weighs less than 4Kg - I usually say 8.5lbs - which is a manageable weight for my shoulders.[/quote] It was the bathroom scales with me as well, also the J-Retro and battery weight almost 0.35 Kg. Best measurement is to come and play it.
