1979 MUSICMAN STINGRAY BASS – FRETLESS – WITH ORIGINAL CASE – LIKE PINO PALLADINO
Possibly the rarest and most iconic version of the musicman Stingray, completely original and with case, original strap and catalogue, this bass is not just just a rarity, but one of the most iconic bass guitars of all times. Just like the one Pino Palladino used in the 80s with Paul Young, this 1979 original fretless musicman Stingray comes from my personal collection and will be listed only for a limited time so if you are interested, don’t hesitate to contact me. I have owned this beauty for a few years now and I have looked after it, servicing it regularly and oiling the fretboard to make sure it stays nice and dark. The body is unreal with one of the nicest timber figuring I have seen on one of these pre Ernie ball basses. The Musicman black strap is extremely rare as well and so is the catalogue inside the original black tolex case. There is also a musicman brass buckle from 1978 inside the case. Ernie Ball has made a reissue of these which I have tried and let me tell you, it’s not quite the same. Regretful sale but I have just purchased an expensive bass and something has to go, although if I sell something else in the meantime I will take the listing down and put this gem back in my collection.

Absurdly rare, these 60s rickenbacker 4001 basses are some of the most sought after instruments on the planet , and for a good reason.

1981 KEN SMITH BT4 STRING BASS – FROM THE FODERA ERA – 1 OF THE FIRST 100 EVER MADE
Vintage 1981 Ken Smith BT4 – True “Fodera Era” Build w/ Medallion & Bill Lawrence
This is not just a Ken Smith bass, it is a foundational document of the modern electric bass. This BT4 (Body Top) model from 1981 bears the extraordinarily low Serial #074, placing it among the very first instruments ever produced by Ken Smith.
The Fodera / New York Luthiery Connection
This bass was handcrafted during the crucial period when legendary luthier Vinnie Fodera worked directly with Ken Smith in New York.
To own this BT4 #074 is like to acquire the heritage and craftsmanship of the “Genesis” of boutique basses.
It features the coveted metal medallion on the headstock, the definitive mark of early production excellence.
If you are looking for that thick, percussive “growl” that catapulted Ken Smith to global fame, this is it.
The combination of early-80s woods and original Bill Lawrence pickups produces an aggressive, punchy tone that is dominant on stage and crystal clear in the studio.
Note on Electronics:
The original HAZ preamp received professional maintenance a few years ago and is in perfect working order, delivering the signature high-fidelity Smith sound without issues.
FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS
Model: BT4 (Body Top)
Year: 1981
Serial Number: #074 (Extreme rarity)
Pickups: Original Bill Lawrence active pickups.
Bridge: Badass II high-mass bridge for legendary sustain.
Tuners: Original Schaller factory tuners.
Electronics: Original HAZ preamp (Maintained & Fully Functional).
Case: Includes a Hiscox hardcase.
As expected from a 45 year old instrument, it features a beautiful natural “relic” patina and has been used but not abused.
Nearly 100% original (woods, pickups, bridge, and neck).
As is common with vintage Smiths, one switch has been replaced to ensure reliable performance.
Playability: Straight neck, functional truss rod, and comfortable low action.

Built in 2010, this instrument features a very light ash body, a gorgeous rosewood fingerboard with pearl block inlays , while incorporating modern features like string through and 5 screw neck plate, resulting in the unique specifications characteristic of a Master-Built instrument.
The use of a Fender string through bridge and lightweight tuning pegs achieves excellent body balance and a modern look.
Super comfortable neck profile, providing a solid, comfortable grip.
It has a perfect midrange presence and a mellow tone, yet it’s by no means a dark sound, instead it offers a well-defined, lively tone.
The sustain is incredibly pleasing.

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.
1963 Fender Jazz Bass in Sunburst finish – Pre CBS – With Original Case
From the 4th year of production, this 61 years old Fender Jazz Bass is just perfection. Great weight, amazing tone, super comfortable neck profile, coveted Brazilian rosewood fretboard and a stunning 3 tone sunburst finish, all topped by the original rare cream tolex hard case, which was only made for less than a year. The alder body is resonant and light, finished in a beautiful 3 colour sunburst where the red hasn’t faded and still nice and vibrant. The pickguard doesn’t have cracks or the common snapped horns and doesn’t show signs of shrinking. The original 1963 pots work without scratches and the black bobbin pickups sounds delightful. Straight neck with a fully functional trussrod and a nice and smooth profile , so comfortable to play. Pickups covers in great condition as the rest of the original hardware. One for players and collectors.
