*Now sold* Didn't plan on selling this but after buying a new sunburst Ray35 with roasted neck , I've decided to stick with that one instead. Bought from WaynesWorld on here less than a month ago, and asking what I paid for it. The bass has been extremely well looked after and plays fantastically well with a nice low action. The 2 band EQ sounds terrific imo. I have changed the orange swirl guard that came with the bass for a red tort one which I think better suits the sunburst but can change back if buyer prefers. No issues with the bass at all. These are sitting around £700 new so a bargain imo, which is what I thought when I bought it for same. I'm in Market Drayton. May be able to meet Telford, Shrewsbury, Crewe or Stoke. Should be able to post though buyer would need to arrange their own service and level of cover. Thanks for looking Keir

Love these. I had a Cort Curbow and also the Tanglewood Canyon III which was fairly similar. This one looks ace in sunburst. GLWTS.

Now withdrawn from sale Selling my second gen Sire M2. Small ding by the pots and one on the bass side edge of the fretboard at the 3rd fret. Small mark on tuner key also. Superb playing bass with a really low action. Rounded over fingerboard edges are a joy! Sire pickups with the Sire Heritage preamp with mid frequency, passive tone and active/passive switch + 3 band EQ. Different sound to the V3s I had on account of the humbuckers. Selling as I am after a particular five string I have already set my sights on. Bass can be auditioned in Market Drayton. Alternatively I can meet around Telford where I work or Newcastle/Stoke, Crewe and Shrewsbury areas. May be able to post if I can lay my hands on a shipping box and packing material. In this instance buyer would have to arrange their own service and level of cover. Thanks for looking! Keir

Versatile drum machine with a lot of features including variation/fill buttons on the front panel, a bunch of kits, ambience and sound shape functions, onboard bass etc Includes box, instruction manual and psu Now £40 Postage will be £5

After selling my back up V3, there's been a change of plan and I'm now also letting go my main one as well. This has largely been my gigging bass of late but has been very well looked after ie almost babied. No issues, low action, plays and sounds great with the usual Sire touches like the rounded over fingerboard edges, gen 2 pickups and the Sire Heritage preamp with selectable mid frequency, passive tone and active/passive switch. Weight is 4.1kg/ 9lb 1oz according to my scales. Price does not include postage. I'm happy to box up for courier if buyer arranges their own service and level of cover. Thanks for looking! Keir

Hi yes same preamp. I just picked up a gen2 M2 (teal green with maple board) and I have to say I really like that bass. Only selling this one as 2 Sires are company, 3 feels like a crowd

Loved mine when I had it, really inspiring to play, but sadly my technique wasn't a match for my enthusiasm and it ended up with yourself. Lovely looking, the dragons eye burst finish needs to seen in person to really appreciate it.

I think this video highlights the tonal differences well.

Now withdrawn. Thanks to those who expressed an interest 2013 Sledge Sabre for sale or trade Wanting to change things up a bit so looking to let go my 2013 Sabre in the Premier Dealer Network Limited Edition Tony Levin Sledge finish. Colour is a bit of a chameleon and shifts from grey to having elements of different hues depending on the type and brightness of lighting on it. Bass is mint condition. Very nicely figured neck with both flame and birdseye in it. The Sabre is the only Classic model to feature the compensated nut and the fretboard radius is 11" compared to 7.5" on the StingRay. No string thru option on the Sabre - top loading only on the bridge. The selector switch gives Lakland mode on position 2 which is the bridge humbucker plus the bridge facing single coil on the neck pickup. Position 4 is very P bass like, being only the bridge facing coil on the neck humbucker. This position benefits from noise free operation courtesy of the onboard silent circuit. No issues with bass at all. Comes with the original black guard as well as an WD aged pearloid one. The original MusicMan SKB style hard case is included. A really superb bass but I already have my cherished and keeper sunburst/maple Classic Sabre which gets all my Sabre playtime. Trade wise I'm looking for : *StingRay Classic in black/maple *StingRay Special preferably with ebony board and black hardware (aqua Sparkle/jet black/charcoal sparkle) Happy to consider other options on a Special. *USA Sterling with cash from your end Possibly open to suggestions of Overwater, Warwick Streamer Stage I / II, Status, Spector etc Looking for a bass in excellent condition with no issues. Bass can be auditioned in Market Drayton in North Shropshire. Will post if buyer arranges their own courier service and level of cover. Trade would really need to be face to face.

It's the lightest bass I own. Not very scientific I know but I'll try and get it weighed tomorrow. Should be able to do something with the me without bass then me with bass on the scales method Keir

Looks great. Loving the newer Sterlings with the roasted necks. GLWTS!

It looks lovely and is right up my street but after my excessive holiday spending, I'm resigned to bottomfeeding. Not that that's a bad thing at all, it just means that basses of this ilk are out of my reach for the foreseeable. Keir
