Key Features

This is a 1989 MusicMan StingRay bass guitar, a highly regarded model known for its powerful sound and versatility. Crafted with an Ash body and Maple neck and fingerboard, this instrument features a slightly rough-textured, refinished finish on the body, with some paint chipping on the top, likely from slap playing. The bass shows signs of use, including scratches and a worn appearance, with approximately 70% fret life remaining and a well-maintained neck and truss rod.

Upgrades include a Seymour Duncan SMB-4A pickup with Alnico magnets for warm, punchy tones, and a Seymour Duncan STC-3M4 active preamp for extensive sound shaping. The E-string tuning machine has been replaced with a Hipshot D-tuner for enhanced tuning stability. The electronics are in good condition, with a master volume, treble, middle, and bass controls, allowing for a wide range of tonal options suitable for rock, funk, and other genres.

The hardware shows some tarnish, consistent with age and use. The nut width is approximately 42.7mm, and the string spacing at the bridge is about 19mm. The instrument has been serviced by GIB, with the pickup and jack replaced, ensuring reliable performance.

Overall, this bass offers a classic StingRay sound with modern upgrades, perfect for musicians seeking a reliable, versatile instrument with character and history.
