FS: 2006 Sterling HS

[DKWilkins]

EB/MM Sterling HS. The extra pickup really opens up fantastic tonal possibilities! Beautiful black finish, maple board, tort pickguard.

Bought it from Brad Dell (bdgotoh); bass is in excellent to like new condition except for 2 small match head size chips in the lower rear of the body just below the cavity cover. These have been touched up and are barely noticeable unless you know they are there and where to look.

This is a great bass. My Pearl Blue '96 Sterling wasn't moving and I've decided to keep it, so the new Sterling HS must go. Only room for one. Comes with the original like new molded EB/MM case, key, polishing cloth etc. Absolutely no issues with bass or case.

$915 shipped/insured in the lower 48. PayPal ok. Not looking for any trades at this time except possibly a Lakland 44-02 plus cash.... or maybe a SR5

Thanks for looking-

Say it ain't so.

Sterlings feel funny to me but man do they sound great.

Someone snatch this up.

 

[DKWilkins]

Quite the bass, especially for the money.........

OOOHHH, that's a nice one, dude!
If it wouldn't be for that Natural i bid for, on e-bay...
I didn't really wanna buy it, (yeah, right, LOL) I just bid for fun,
but it looks like I'm gonna win it... I guess this bass wants me!
If somebody outbids me, I'll give you a shout on this one! I wants it!

You can look at it this way stank, it is now a little closer to you. (At least I think).

 

[Dr Stankface]

Hehe. I'm waiting for bdgotoh to reply to the MFB thread anyway.

 

[Aragorn35016]

You know now that I think about it, I think this will also be my first experience with a maple boarded MM bass.

 

[Dr Stankface]

So this will be the 3rd forum member with that SR5.

"You know now that I think about it, I think this will also be my first experience with a maple boarded MM bass."

I gotta say, maple FB's rock.......... I went through a rosewood period, and just realized the other day that all my current fretboards are maple; 2 EB/MM's and 5 others. Gonna be kinda neat to get a rosewood board again...

...and yeah, the Egyptian Smoke SR5 will be about 2.5 hours (give or take) away from Stanky now
