warwickhunt Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) Pukka embossed hard case for a Musicman 'Sterling' bass... what's it worth? If the price is right I'm selling, if it isn't I'll keep it until I get another Sterling that needs a case!

Ou7shined Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 £50? That seems to be what gets added onto the bass' price if it comes with one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepurpleblob Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 I'll definitely have it if it's still for sale subject to acceptable delivery arrangements (ok - not definitely then ). How far north of the tyne is north of the tyne? Alternatively, is posting a possibility? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warwickhunt Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 A quick update; Dave's just been down with his Ray and it won't fit in this case! The body is too wide and top horn too long to fit the moulding, so be warned this is for the skinnier Sterling basses (surprised both of us how much difference there was).

Rowbee Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Odd. I had an official MM Sterling case that I picked up from Shockwave and that definitely fitted his Stringray too. Perhaps my case was an older version or something - that said, the Sterling body is significantly smaller than the Stingray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cd_david Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 (edited) This is definitely a real musicman case I must admit i was surprised, both by the difference in sizes of ray and sterlings, (longer top horn on the sterling and body at least 1" deeper on upper bout of ray) and i too thought they were interchangeable cases, maybe they are now or were.................. Either way its a great case in great nick and Johns a great bloke ATB Dave Edited October 12, 2009 by cd_david Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted October 14, 2010 Author Share Posted October 14, 2010 Still available... I've been using it to transport my Zon Sonus or Streamer bass in as it fits them, so not fussed about pushing the sale but I have other cases that I can use.

thunderbass1 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Hi, I've just bought a Sterling so If you still have the case I'd love it, how much would you want, including 2nd class postage to London?? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers[/quote] You + 2 other interested parties have PM'd me in the space of 30mins... lots of people buying Sterlings without cases it would seem. Fairest if I deal with this in the order the messages/postings arrived... unless someone wants to sell me their Sterling instead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shire Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Fair is fair! I have one of Ped's old cases but seeing as I take her out at least twice a week to practice/gigs I thought she deserved an early xmas present! Can you buy them online? I bought my bass on here for a great price so I can't grumble about not having a case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
