Johnebass

Will add better pictures when I can get outside in the day light without getting blown away.

[font="Tahoma"]I have for sale my spare Jon Shuker 5 string bass. I already have a Shuker 5 string thru-neck which I use all of the time and I cannot justify keeping this one sat at home collecting dust, plus all my other basses and amps (most of which you will see for sale shortly) Anyway, back to this bass, as I said its a 5 string bolt-on neck with Seymour Duncan Basslines pickups and 18v electronics and it plays like a dream. I am looking for £900 ono and would be prepared to meet any buyer between my home (Bristol) and their home town, within reason. The full spec is as follows: [b]Neck[/b] 34 " scale 24 frets maple/wenge laminated neck two way truss rod carbon fibre reinforcement matching head veneer birdseye maple board Jumbo frets Black side dots Black face dots [b]Body[/b] Swamp Ash body Mallee burr drop top Polyester basecoat Wet look gloss topcoat [b]Pickups[/b] Seymour Duncan alnico MM pickup Seymour Duncan 5 string J pickup hot [b]Electronics[/b] Shuker custom 18v electronics [b]Hardware[/b] Gotoh GB707 tuners Individual bridge units All black hardware This is an absolutely clean bass that could be in you hands before Christmas. The pictures are not brilliant as they were taken indoor in bad light but if you mail me I will send anyone that wants them some better ones which I will take in the daylight John[/font] [attachment=3897:DSC01316.JPG][attachment=3896:DSC01314.JPG][attachment=3895:DSC01312.JPG] [attachment=3900:DSC01320.JPG][attachment=3901:DSC01321.JPG][attachment=3899:DSC01319.JPG] [attachment=3898:DSC01317.JPG]

This 2 band Musicman Stingray is in full working order and has been used regularily in the studio or live almost every day up to 6 months ago when I moved to 5 string and basically is not being used. I have 6 basses and something has to go so its the Stingray. The body has some dings on it which you would expect from a 17/18 year old bass, and the neck is laquered although it is well worn and most of it has worn off or down, which I feel makes it play better. The serial number is 29485 which dates the bass somewhere between 1989/90 although it is unclear what the actual date is. I have taken some pictures and tried to show all of the marks but if anyone wants any more or would like to try the bass let me know and I will try to arrange something. They say that guitars sound better by age and this is certainly true with this one, deep, rich and with tons of punch, the sound is typical stingray..............................what more can I say? All on the bass, as far as I know, is original except the scratchplate which was changed a few years ago. I am asking a fair £850 and am willing to be flexible with delivery, unless you live in Australia or the likes!!!
