Original rare early musicman Stingray from the third year of production with the original coveted black epoxy preamp.

The neck and body are stamped 1978 and the Tone and sustain of this bass is out of this world.

Grain on the ash body is gorgeous and the ageing and mojo is just sublime.

The weight is really good as these B00 usually weight close to 5kg but this particular one sits at 4kg which makes a lot more comfortable to play for long gigs and one of the lightest I have ever seen.

Being an early one , it has the original high mass bridge with string through the body.

The Bone nut has been swapped for a brass one at some point.

Preamp , pickup and pots are perfectly working with no buzz or scratchy noise.

These are skyrocketing everywhere and they are considered the precbs of musicman.

Hard case included
