Serial Number: 56275
Made on May 19th, 1995
Nut Width: 1.74"
Neck Thickness at 1st Fret: 0.84"
Neck Thickness at 12th Fret: 0.98"
Weight: 9 Lbs 12 oz's

*** It has just been professionally set up and dialed in for optimal tone and playability. It has low action with no buzzing. The frets are dressed, leveled and polished and shine like new, it is truly stage or studio ready/worthy. (Including New Strings,  Intonation, Truss Rod adjustment and Action)

You just can't get more "baller" than this... The Stingray has been revered as one of the most iconic bass guitars in history. It is simply a performance-built bass any serious player can appreciate.  Feast your eyes on the ridiculous grain of the ash body and prepare to be blown away once you plug her in and let her rock. This thump master supreme is ready to hit the stage or studio and will absolutely blow you away with its smooth playability and phenomenal tone.

The Classic 1995 Stingray 5 pays tribute to the original Music Man designs from the mid to late 1970s with added modern refinements. The first bass designed by Ernie Ball Music Man, the Stingray 5 was unveiled in 1987 and has been an industry standard for extended range basses ever since. With its powerful punchy sound, the added flexibility of additional pickups and a comfortably contoured body the StingRay5 satisfies even the most demanding of players.

Cosmetically, as you can see in the pictures, this StingRay is in excellent pre owned condition and has no big dings, dents, bumps or bruises.

Terms For Returns & Re-Stocking Fee’s

We recognize and accept a 7 day return policy as per Reverb guidelines, BUT intentions of the return must be communicated in writing within 3 day of receiving the guitar as indicated by the tracking. Unless the guitar is not as described, ORIGINAL & RETURN SHIPPING COSTS WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. There is a 10% Re-stocking fee for ALL guitars that are returned for ANY reason outside of damage from shipping or it arrives significantly not as described. Please note that we record demo videos to make sure our guitars go out exactly as we describe them with zero issues. We understand that feeling comfortable is vital to the purchase of a guitar/bass so in any case, additional measurements or in hand descriptions are available prior to purchase/shipping. Thats said, guitars travel a great distance some times and in transit things can happen. Also guitars acclimate to new environments and this can cause a need for a new set up or minor adjustment. It is acceptable and normal if there is for instance a tiny bit of buzzing or the need to adjust a truss rod. We are in south Florida and if you are in a colder or less humid environment it is almost to be expected. Please read our feedback and see what our customers say. The guitar MUST BE RETURNED IN THE EXACT CONDITION it was advertised/received or it is subject to additional costs & or repair fees. We are not a big chain shop, I hope you understand. If you are uncomfortable with these terms please do not purchase. There are plenty big chain shops that can absorb free trials and shipping.
