[quote name='casapete' post='600476' date='Sep 16 2009, 05:07 PM']After a lot of agonizing, have decided to it's time to move on my gorgeous Sterling. Taken me a long time to realise that I prefer Stingray/Precision
type necks to the slimmer Sterling/Jazz ones, so am either looking for a straight sale or possibly a trade for a Stingray. Not too fussed over colour and fingerboard, though would like something that's in similar condition to mine and medium/light in weight.
So, according to Aziah at Ernie Ball my Sterling "was born on November 2nd. 2000 in San Luis Obispo California". I am the second owner,having had it since
approx 2004 if I remember correctly. Has always been looked after, and has n't been used for the last year or so due to me having an accident which stopped me playing for a while.
Finish is Honey Sunburst with a rosewood fingerboard. It has a white pearloid scratchplate fitted,but I still have the original plain white one
so you can have which one you prefer.
Condition is immaculate-virtually unblemished apart from a tiny laquer mark (just near the output socket) which is barely noticeable.
The neck is pristine, the headstock has a couple of tiny marks which again are hard to spot. Overall it is in fantastic condition,especially as it
is coming up 9 years old. Original MM hardcase is included (with unused key!) - case is in excellent condition,as have used a flightcase a lot of the time.
Think it will be hard to find a Sterling this age in better nick really.
Am looking for [b]£695[/b] (or maybe trade for your Stingray.)
May consider very near offers - try me!
I am in East Yorkshire near Hull, but could help with delivery in Yorkshire/North if necessary.
Would prefer not to post to ensure you are happy with it/arrives okay etc, but will discuss carriage if no other option.
Cheers for looking.[/quote]
