Musicman started as Leo Fender's second brand and captivated many musicians with its innovative designs.
Louis Johnson, Flea, and many other artists loved Musicman basses.
Musicman was later acquired by Ernieball and is now known as Ernieball Musicman.
The Stingray is by far the most popular model of the company, but this is the Sterling.
It features a slightly slimmer body shape and is more comfortable to hold in comparison.
This model is a rare 5-string with HS pickup layout.
Most of them are 4-string with a single humbucking PU, so it is rare.
The body is Ash and the fingerboard is Maple, a wood composition typical of Musicman.
In addition to the powerful bridge humbucking sound that was the original appeal of the Stingray, Sterling, the combination of neck-side pickups adds variety to the sound.
Overall, we think this is an attractive piece that will strike a GEEK bassist's heartstrings.
Don't miss out on this opportunity.
The frets are approximately 80% full.
The truss rod is a little stiff, but we have confirmed that it works at least 90 degrees, so don't worry.
The neck is in good condition with a slight high rise, but the first string is 2.0mm~fifth string is 2.8mm and can be played without any problem. The frets are high, so if you need a lower string height, we can accommodate you by adjusting the frets.
The condition of the body and painted surface is generally clean, although there are some small scratches and dents.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No clear modification points were found.
