1980 Music Man Sabre bass in excellent condition. White finish with a maple neck and a rosewood fretboard. Black pickguard, 2 band EQ, Contoured body, 2 humbucking pickups, internal micro powered pre-amp, brightness + phase in/out and pickup selector switches. All original and complete including the case.
The body finish is in excellent condition with just a few small scuffs and tiny dings as well as a little buckle rash. The back of the neck and the fretboard are in excellent condition. The headstock is also clean with just a few small scuffs on the top edge. There are 2 small repairs to the pickguard - one through the screw hole nearest the neck joint (G string side) and one by the tip at the lower horn.
The body and neck both date to 1980 but only the neck has a visible month which is May. The body month is very hard to make out but we think it says Feb? The pots are dated to mid '79. The frets are in great shape with plenty of life left in them and the truss rod is fully operational with plenty of room to move. The neck is straight and plays smoothly.
This bass has been fully checked over and set up in our workshop with a fresh set of Ernie Ball roundwound strings. Serial number: C005479. Weight: 10 lbs / 4.53 kg Nut width: 43 mm. Depth at 1st fret: 20 mm.
Condition | Excellent 8.95/10 |
