Music Man 1982 Stingray Used Electric Bass Dec 03 1982 Vintage Classic

Key Features

  • Vintage Pre-Ernie Ball era Stingray bass, dated December 3, 1982, now available.
  • The instrument has been adjusted at the neck angle with a shim, resulting in a good neck condition and a relatively low string height for comfortable playability.
  • It features some minor modifications, including control knobs, pickguard, jack, and two potentiometers in the EQ section, but remains a well-preserved and cohesive unit.
  • The finger rest is an aftermarket addition.
  • The pickups and preamp are original, functioning perfectly and delivering the classic 1980s Stingray sound.
  • No changes have been made to the frets or nut; while some fret wear is present, it does not significantly affect playability.
  • The truss rod operates smoothly with full adjustment range.
  • This era of Stingray offers a unique character and punchy humbucker tone that modern models, including the current Stingray Special, cannot replicate.
  • The four-bolt neck joint provides a balanced, lively sound with a slight "bite," especially when fingered or slapped.
  • The bass produces a fun and engaging sound, suitable for various playing styles such as fingerstyle, pick, or slap, with a distinctive midrange that shines in slap techniques.
  • Weight: approximately 4 kg.
  • Please note that due to inventory updates, the item may sell out quickly; we appreciate your understanding if the listing is no longer available after purchase.
