If it had been the R60 version I’d have had it like a shot! Glad it’s sold 👍

Further photographs added including those of the case, the new and old neck plates (from last year before I returned the broken plate to EB) and of a couple of tiny dings that I'd omitted in the original post.

It’s the same whether sitting or standing unfortunately (strap or not) 🤔

This could be a great option for anybody on a budget looking for a cab that could squeeze into a shallow car boot. Considerably shallower than a std TE 1053 cab and although weighty, it would be far easier to handle for load in/load out. GLWTS

Ernie Ball Musicman Sterling 4HH - £850 posted mainland UK or £825 collected I bought this bass last year and fell in love with it. However up until buying this I’d always played wider 'P' necked basses whereas this has a more narrow, Jazz like width. Whether it’s an age thing or not I’m unsure but I’ve started to experience pains in my fretting hand after playing this bass for anything more than 15 minutes. I’m not getting those pains after playing any of my other wider necked basses so I’ve concluded that this neck and I are no longer compatible. • Year of manufacture 2009 • Country of manufacture USA • 4HH • Black • Ash Body • Maple Neck • Rosewood fingerboard • 3-band EQ • 5-way selector switch (see image below) • Weight 4.5kgs/9.9lbs • 2 scratch plates – the original white/black/white one currently fitted plus an aftermarket black/white/black one as shown in the majority of the photographs • Complete with original MM hard shell case I had the neck plate replaced last year as there was a hairline crack in the original. The new plate complete with new serial number was obtained through the correct Strings & Things/Ernie Ball channels. For those unaware in order to avoid any skulduggery in these situations, original broken plates have to be returned before Ernie Ball will update their database records with the newly issued serial number. The old plate was duly returned to EB once the below photograph of the two was taken last year. EDIT - Condition Update - I've been over this bass again with a very keen eye and have listed anything that I could see, however minor and have tried to photograph them as best I can: The scratch plates have a fair number of scratches on them There’s a very small dink on the back bottom edge of the body near to the jack socket There are a couple of marks on the headstock There are a couple of tiny indentations above the scratchplate on the top of the body The case has lots of surface scratches on it (no cracks or smashed corners etc) but is very clean inside The majority of these photographs were taken last year and show strap lock buttons fitted. The original buttons have now been refitted. It’s a lovely bass in great condition and the HH arrangement gives you some great tone options. £825 collected from South Yorkshire or £850 posted to mainland UK (UK buyers only thanks).

Great basses and this one is particularly gorgeous. GLWTS
