L/H 2020 Musicman Sterling USA including spare musicman pickup - *SOLD* £1450 TS23 3DJ Billingham

[Graham A]

Hi,

 

I'm looking at moving on my left handed Musicman Sterling 4H.

The bass was manufactured in November 2020, & I purchased the bass from Thomann's in January 2021. When I received the bass I discovered that the phantom coil had come away from the bottom of the pickup. I emailed Strings & Things & received a replacement pickup from EBMM a few weeks later. In the meantime I glued the original pickup which has remained intact, however the replacement pickup will be included in the sale.

The bass comes complete with it’s hard case, which hasn't left the house as i use a mono gig bag, & is fitted with dunlop strap locks ( will include the strap attachments ), although the original strap locks will be included.

Condition wise the bass is in VGC, although it has been gigged. It has a small indentation to the headstock & small marks on the upper part of the body. I’ve included photographs of these.

 

Weight wise it’s coming in at 4.1kg on a set of bathroom scales.

 

Only looking to sell in the UK, & collection preferable. I am also willing to meet up within a reasonable distance of the Middlesbrough / Teesside area.

 

Thanks for looking.
