1994 US Ernie Ball Musicman Sterling Bass in Mint Condition With Original Case
Another bass from my personal time machine. This Musicman Sterling Bass is an absolute stunner . Not to be confused with the Asian Musicman Sterling sub brand , this is the original USA Sterling model and it’s based on the stingray, but with a thinner neck and more tonal options. Perfect, not one mark or scuff equipped with the sought after original Flea high mass bridge with mutes. Gorgeous Birdseye maple neck and the sunburst finish is just spot on. Comes with the rare short tolex case which was only available for the first few months of production of this American Musicman Ernie Ball model. A great bass, as a player or collector piece. Renowned for its slightly smaller body and neck profile, the Sterling 4 string bass boasts a big sound. Nine volt active 3 band EQ preamp, 3 position pickup selector switch, and a ceramic humbucker with hum canceling phantom coil come standard, equipping the Sterling to cut through any mix. The optional addition of a pickup in the neck position adds even more versatility to this innovative bass. The Sterling delivers comfort, functionality, and the precision craftsmanship and attention to detail you’ve come to expect from Ernie Ball Music Man.

1977 Fender Precision Bass in Original Natural finish
Very nice condition Fender Precision Bass, made in 1977 in the US. This bass has a really nice neck profile , not too heavy sitting at 4.4kg and has a really nice growl, classic of this Fender era . All original , just had some copper shielding applied inside the electronic cavity to get a rid of any sort of hum but it’s just copper tape , so easy to remove (I wouldn’t as it’s an improvement and doesn’t devalue it). Frets in good condition and trussrod moves smooth left and right with zero issues. Action in low with no buzz and the original pots and pickups works like new. Great player and a beautiful looking instrument.

1961 Fender Precision Bass – Aussie Crawl, Renee Gayer, Jimmy Barnes , Ross Wilson, Kevin Borich
1961 Fender Precision Bass in beautifully worn black finish and a piece of Australia music history.
Previously owned by none less than the amazing Harry Brus (Australian Crawl, Renee Gayer , Kevin Borich, Jimmy Barnes, Ross Wilson and many others) , this instrument has so many stories to tell and has been working hard but it’s still one of the nicest fender basses I have ever played.
Light as a feather due to the alder body and with the very rare and coveted Brazilian rosewood slab fretboard.
The original pickup is just pure magic and the neck is super comfortable and slim .
All parts on the bass are genuine beside the nut and frets which have been redone as they were to worn .
One of the best looking basses I have had the pleasure to own and play and a piece of Australian rock history
