SOLD: Musicman Stingray - Trans Teal

[HeavyJay]

SOLD SOLD SOLD

For sale is a 1996 3EQ Musicman Stingray in Trans Teal with a white scratchplate and maple neck, serial number B04108 (out of the factory on October 16th, 1996). I changed the scratchplate from the original black one and am happy to change it back if preferred.

I've had this for about a year, I bought it on eBay and it's been great. The reason I'm selling it is that I just bought [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&showtopic=25449&view=findpost&p=827943"]a red one[/url] and can't really afford to keep this one anymore.

The body is ash which makes it really lightweight and the trans finish shows the grain of the wood really nicely.

It's in great condition, there are a couple of barely noticeable scratches on the back (poss buckle-rash, and not mine) which I've tried to show in the photos and a small black mark on the edge of the headstock.

I would like [b]£700[/b] for this and would prefer cash on collection from [url="http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=shipley&sll=53.835921,-1.776841&sspn=0.197326,0.435333&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Shipley,+United+Kingdom&ll=53.848476,-1.777039&spn=0.197267,0.435333&z=11&iwloc=A"]Shipley in West Yorkshire[/url], although if you'd like to have it delivered to the UK I can arrange for a courier at the purchasers expense (I should imagine it would be about £20).

Included in this is a Bass Centre hard case (shown in the photos).

I'm happy for you to come and inspect it and/or have a go on it.

If you have any questions please let me know.

if i had the money... this is a gorgeous colour and with the maple neck!

nice pants btw

[fatgoogle]

My favourite colour for a stingray. If only i wasnt buying a double bass, if only.

[ezbass]

Oh that is pure porn! Have a free bump.

[JTUK]

Lovely looking bass..

MM do some colours very well indeed to my eyes and some of them would almost persuade me to buy a MM5.

I say almost as in I don't need another bass but still tempting.

[Higgie]

I really love this bass. It's the perfect SR colour IMO. I'd have it if I had the cash

Have a bump!

Ps. does it come with the matching bin?

The bin would be a deal breaker for me.

Me too. If it is, I might be able to scrape the cash together.

The bin's yours

And the pants if you like

[Higgie]

Haha. Really wish I could mate. I already have a Stingray exactly the same spec as yours just in Trans Orange with a Nordie 4.2 in it, and it doesn't get used much.

I just love the the Trans Teal!

I love the trans finishes. Jobiebass had a Trans red one up for sale a year or so ago and I passed up on it. Really regretting it now!

Got any pics of yours about? On the MM SR porn thread?

[Higgie]
