Stambaugh four string fretless mint

Sign in to disble this ad
My heart aches to have to do this, but my Stambuagh four string fretless has to go due to major unexpected life events. You can see an image at stambaughdesigns.com under customer photos attached to my name, John Lally. I've also posted images here in the past. Figured black walnut top, ash body, macassar ebony board with very subtle bubinga lines (almost invisible even close up but helpful in the studio), Hipshot bridge, two Bartolini X series pickups, three piece maple/purpleheart/maple bolt on neck, Schaller strap locks. Gorgeous instrument and plays like a dream. No case, but I'll grab a serviceable gig bag at Guitar Center and will pack it well. $1200 plus actual ground shipping to your address within the continental US only. Payment by money order. Weight is about 7 lbs, maybe even a little less. Very lightweight instrument. Neck profile mimics a Fender C Jazz Bass nec shape. Thin wihtut being insubstantial and fast. Outstanding bass in every way. I'm also selling a Chapman Stick due to the financial obligations I'm facing. Thanks for your interest.

Thanks Bryan. I lack the technical proficiency and you really helped me out there.

Sorry to hear this John, I pray this is only a temporary setback for you.

Peace Brother,

Fretless Stammies are so nice(from a former 4- & current 7-string owner). Someone buy this.

Pre is an Aguilar OBP-3. Sorry I didn't mention that in the initial post.

Oh, and the scale length is 34", by the way. I thought I had most of the particulars covered but I did forget some key things. Low action, virtually no wear on the board. It's been strung with XLs since Chris shipped it to me with those on it. I liked how they sounded so I stuck with them. Nickel rounds as you probably know so they haven't eaten into the board at all. Some light string markings but no real wear.

Bass is sold. Thanks for all who helped out with posting a picture or just oohing and ahhing. It's a great bass. The new owner will be quite pleased.
