FS: 2013 Music Man Stingray Classic – Vintage Sunburst – Flamed AAA Birdseye Maple Neck – Mint – Hipshot D-Tuner – 2 Pickguards - *SOLD* £2395 Glasgow

[MattM]

Up for sale is my 2013 Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray Classic 4-string in Vintage Sunburst with a stunning AAA flamed / birdseye maple neck. This is one of the nicest figured Classic necks I’ve seen and the figuring runs all the way up the neck and headstock. Music Man confirmed the spec via their database (see screenshot)

 

I’d conservatively describe as excellent but most people would use mint condition with only home practise use. No gigs, no marks, no issues. It plays beautifully, set up low with no buzz.

 

Comes with some nice extras:

Hipshot D-Tuner professionally fitted

Original Music Man tuner included in the case

Both black and white pickguards 

Original Music Man hard case

Case candy (strap locks, keys etc)

 

Specs

2-EQ Classic preamp

Classic mute bridge in perfect working order

Chrome hardware

Weight: 4.5kg / 9.9 lbs

 

These 2010–2014 Classics are becoming increasingly sought after, especially the ones with premium neck figuring. Prices are rising, and very few clean UK examples come up with this level of figuring.

 

Only selling because I’m downsizing and moving to a Precision for home practice.

 

Price  £2,395.  Folk are listing these with meh necks, damage and scratches and no extras like Hipshots and extra scratch plates on Reverb for more than this.  Dealers would be way above this for a similar example.  Open to sensible offers.   Bass is located in Central Scotland handy for all major motorway networks, happy to meet within reasonable distance (I have rendezvoused with fellow Basschatters in the North of England before).   Happy to discuss shipping with buyer, would prefer to remain within UK at this stage.

 

Feedback

I have excellent feedback on Basschat from many years on here, my latest deal being for my 78 Tony Franklin fretless with Beedster the forum legend who was delighted, so buy with confidence.

 

Cheers.
