Returned - Sterling by MM Ray34 Honeyburst - Mint!

Found a deal on another bass so this ones going back....

...Original listing
This is only a few days old. Got a great deal on it so I had to try it out. Decided I'd rather have the SB14 or a USA L-2000.

Got it from MF. The E string was dead, intonation was off and the setup wasn't great. I put on some new Lakland SS strings and adjusted it up. Plays and sounds wonderful now.

I could just pay the return shipping and send it back to MF, but I thought I'd give my fellow TB'ers a shot at one for a great price. Click for specs.

$575 shipped anywhere in the continental US to your door. Pay by Paypal or USPS Money order

Trades I would consider...

USA G&L L-2000 + $$$ from me
G&L Tribute L-2000 + $$$ from you
EBMM 4H or 4HH Sterling + $$$ from me
Lakland Skyline 44-02 + $$$ from me
Rickenbacker 4003 + $$$$ from me

Trade candidates must have rosewood boards and be in at least 8 out of 10 (or better) condition. Don't need a case,

The fretboard looks worn on the close-up. Is this a mirage?

No, this bass has about 8 hours of playing time on it. It's definitely not worn.

Thanks for asking though. I can email real closeup pictures if you like.

I played one of these at GC the other night. I was impressed!! Probably the best sounding/playing bass in the store. The pup/preamp combination is REALLY nice. EBMM has a winner with these.

I've decided to also consider trades because I'll be buying something to to replace this anyway.

I currently have a beautiful passive reverse P/J John Hill and Pod X3 Live so I can ape just about any tone. Still the MM/L-2000/Rick sounds are the hardest to cover.

USA G&L L-2000 + $$$ from me
G&L Tribute L-2000 + $$$ from you
