If Terry is too busy, I'm about twenty minutes from Stevenage and could do it for you the latter part of next week.

I think I found someone to do it but thanks for the offer Gary

Hello 

I need to get the nut replaced on my musicman sabre, I'm working in stevenage and don't really know the area. Has anyone got any recommendations to take it to? 

sorry, yes it's gome. the new owner might reveal himself ...I don't know how to change the title to sold ?

Got a Trade pending on this now so ON HOLD

SOLD

Looks fab, want!!

Sadowsky perhaps ?

I think its a bargain, love it .. took the day off work to get intimately acquainted, highly recommend these basses ..

It was up for £1k but I managed to haggle it down to £900

think its a 2006

wow, thanks John, the serial is M1326, not sure how to date it,

yeah jonnybass that's the one, got it fot £900 this morning, well chuffed with it, thanks for the replies everyone,[attachment=119873:IMAG0083.jpg]

Oooo, that's lovely ... £900 did you say ? I'll come an pick it up aswel,

is yours a japanese one warwick ?

Thanks Dingus, just thought I'd run it past the bass chatters before pulling the trigger ..

I dont think its a fake because it oozes quality .. its got a sadowsky case aswel,

I've seen a sadowsky jazz for sale for £900 but not sure if its a good price or not. its a made in japan one and is active. the serial number is M then 4 numbers. should I buy it ? its sounds great and feels lovely ..

I've got a Japanese BB1100s and there's no way I'd sell it for £250, brilliant basses, keep a hold of it ..

I will be interested to hear how you get on as there is a lot of talk about where you can or cant get them but no one has ever come back with a solid answer or the actual mute kits.[/quote]
I'll let you know if I manage to get the kit,

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' post='1136363' date='Feb 21 2011, 09:53 PM']I have fixed the pictures now [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=101460&hl=stingray+mutes"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...=stingray+mutes[/url]
Musicman didnt used to be interested in this issue but as the Classic Rays are now available Im told the kit costs around £25 all in including springs,Pads and Thumb turns which isnt too bad IMO. My only point to note for some is that the thumb turns are not the same as the pre EB ones as they have a smaller diameter but certainly better than the none most pre EB's have and the chances of getting any originals is almost nil. What are they going on BW?[/quote]

Thanks Pete,
Looks like a real tidy job you've done there,
£25 sounds a good price to me, they are for my 1993 Stingray that has a bridge to accomodate mutes but no mutes,
Had the bass for 15 years or so and have been thinking about getting some fitted for a long time,

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' post='1135855' date='Feb 21 2011, 05:35 PM']Ah that's not as simple, Strings and things would be your best bet or try EBMM by email direct they are much better than people would have you believe.[/quote]


Pete, I've emailed strings and things,
see what they come back with,

Thanks for the replies, i'll get on to musicman.

I'm after the metal bits as well, thanks though,

I'm after some string mutes for my Stingray, I remember someone on BC said they got some new from a some shop but I can't find the thread with the shop name,
