Musicman Stingray MM30

Sapphire Black / Roasted Maple Neck

Limited Edition for Premier Dealer Network

Only 25 worldwide!!!

 

This Musicman Stingray MM30 was produced in 2013/2014 exclusively for the Premier Dealer Network limited to 25 pieces. It’s got a special effect lacquer called “Sapphire Black” combined with a breathtaking roasted maple neck. The only change was made by replacing the original PU with a handwound Stauffer/Haeussel MM-PU. The original PU is included. Here are the facts:

Model:

·         Musicman Stingray MM30 (PDN Limited Edition)

Neck:

• one piece maple neck
• roasted with oil-/wax-finish (really incredible feel!!!)
• longscale (864mm) with 21 frets
• 6-point bolt-on neck joint
• compensated nut
• neck width: saddle 42,8 mm - 12th fret 56,7 mm
• neck thickness: 1st fret 22 mm - 12th fret 24,3 mm

Body:

• Ash body
• special effect finish „Sapphire Black“

Hardware:

• Schaller hardware chrome
• hardened Music Man bridge
• string spacing: Saddle 11 mm / bridge 19 mm

Electronics

• humbucking-PU (replaced with a handwound Stauffer/Haeussel-PU, original MM-PU is included)
• distance from bridge: 77/101 mm
• Musicman 3-band EQ
• current: 9 Volt

Overall

• weight: 4,5 kg (stated) - mine is 4,27 kg (digital fine scale)
• original accessories: gigbag (no case!), sticker, cloth

 

I purchased a quality case for the Stingray but alternatively the original gigbag is also available.

Compared to the “standard” Stingray the bass is less "aggressive". The roasted neck and the Haeussel-PU lead to an even tone without loosing the original punch and growl.

The bass is located in Dortmund / Germany. Insured shipping to UK is no problem and included in the instrument price!

Price: 1.400 GBP

I am open for any questions!

The bass was reviewed by a German bass magazine and these are their professional photographs. But it’s exactly the bass on sale here!
