1978 Black Music Man Stingray Bass
This 1978 Black Music Man Stingray is all original except for a new nut and a refret. This has a 1 piece maple neck and a Black Alder body. This has a standard 2 band eq with an active preamp. All original electronics give this the classic Stingray Sound. Pre Ernie Ball Stingray Basses from 1979 and before have a string through body. This is one of those. The String Through body with the active preamp make for a tone that is one in its own. The bass is dated December of 1978 and the pots also date to 1978. The bass weighs 9 pounds 12 ounces.
Condition
The bass is in excellent condition. There is very little wear of any kind. The finish looks fantastic. The original hardware is also clean. The neck is straight and the action is set low with no buzz. Pre Ernie Ball Stingray basses are notorious for bad necks and this is not one of those. The neck feels great and the truss rod turns. The electronics are clean and they sound incredible. This plays great, looks great and sounds fantastic.
