Description
***Everything about this bass is just.... So, so right. Players will spend way more than this to get a relic'ed custom shop instrument. This example has one of the best naturally road worn looks I've ever seen. That in combination with the modern upgrades gives you the look & feel of a vintage instrument, but the smooth playability of a newer one... I'm telling ya, just get this one. This is the one right here!***
-Scott

Here we have an absolutely epic vintage Music Man StingRay Bass in a natural finish—the real deal. This is not a relic job or a reissue. It’s a genuine vintage instrument, absolutely dripping with mojo in the best possible way.

It has a substantial feel without being overly heavy and feels incredible in the hands. The ash body is lively and resonant, and all of the checking & natural wear it has earned over the years is smooth and comfortable, with no rough spots at all.

The neck also shows natural relicing, a smooth satin backside, along with light pitting in the maple fretboard. Beautiful bird's eye figuring is visible throughout the entire neck and headstock, adding even more character to this instrument.

The single Music Man bridge pickup sounds amazing; & the electronics have non-original Alessandro's which are high end replacement pots. The remaining electronics appear to be original.

This is a true player’s instrument, it plays like a dream, and it’s clear the previous owner cherished it. Now, it’s your turn.
