ON HOLD - Musicman Stingray 2EQ 1989 - *SOLD* £1750 North Yorkshire (York)

Musicman Stingray 1989

 

I’ve had this for about 10 years of it’s near 35 year life, this bass has seen a lot of action and plays beautifully. (S/N 27254 9th Jan 1989).

 

It has wear and tear but that’s because it’s been gigged a lot not because someone has taken a sander and a blowtorch to it, unlike the relic’d basses you see these days.

 

The maple neck is lovely and the photos really don’t do it justice, lovely low action.

 

The black paint isn’t glossy anymore, the hardware isn’t mirror shiny, but then again it has aged better than I have.

 

Recently set up and serviced by Mor Music in York.

 

Currently strung with Ernie Ball Cobalt Flatwounds. The only thing I have replaced is the string mutes as they were worn out when I got the bass, the replacements are from Musicman.

 

I’m not sure what the bare patch is all about on the back, I don’t know whether someone in the past has had something stuck on to make it sit a certain way if wearing it high up.

 

Comes with a non Musicman hard case.

I can ship if necessary.

 

Only selling to get another 5 string and possibly an acoustic.

 

Weight 4.3kg / 9.5lb

 

Based in North Yorkshire.

That is a mighty fine Stingray. A couple of years older than mine. GLWS.
