1996 US EB/MM Sterling

Sign in to disble this ad
Here's a great early Sterling. Blue Pearl, I believe, with a 1996 sticker in the control cavity. She's got a few bumps and some scuffs on the pg, but nothing too dramatic. Nut was replaced with graphite. D string intonation screw replaced (had to heat up the saddle a bit because the screw was rusted and fused to the saddle, and refused to budge; the screw I replaced it with came from EB/MM customer service). If you look very closely, you can see the saddle is ver slightly discolored from the heat. Tough to find the right saddle as this is the "transitional" bridge and not the saame as what they use today. However, she now intonates well....

Weighs 9.5 lbs and comes in an aftermarket fiberglass lightweight but super strong hsc that fits very nicely.

SOLD

Thanks, but not really my thing.

All PMs replied. Bass is still available.

Bump from a fan of mid-nineties Sterlings. Great wood & build, big bridge, distinct saddle widths, inset neck plate...
