[Roby]

Hi Dan, Just bought my second stingray - a 5 string HH and serial no. E29292.
Any info on age and colour (Lava Pearl Red?).
My first ray is a new HH, bought only 3 weeks ago!

Gheeesh, Roby's on a roll!! Serial # E29292 references a StingRay 5 in Translucent Red with a maple neck. It was completed on March 12, 2002 and shipped straight to the U.K.

Thanks Dan,
but I should have said 5 string H (not HH). Only problem is they're both the same colour. But was a bargain not to be missed.

[can you hear me]

Hi,

I'd appreciate any info on my 4 string stingray HH purchaced in
australia. Serial E52042, I'd particularly like to know what wood the body is and the production date if possible.

Thanks in advance

Dan,

Just bought a used Stingray 5 with serial number E29192. Can you tell me when it was made? The color looks like it might be a honey burst (see my avatar).

Thanks,

Larry K.

Jean-Frederic,

Your bass was completed on 2/04/04 and originally sent to Steve's Music in Montreal.

Larry, sweet! Actually we show it as a Autumn Red Burst and a build date of 3/19/02. Though I have to agree, it looks like HoneyBurst. The difference is Honeyburst is translucent, ARB is not.

Boy, are these yours? Just a question ... as that is the purpose of this database. If not, and you are just checking them out, please email me privately. Thanks!

Hi Dan

Thanks for that information, could I be a pain and ask if Aus was its first home? Had some headstock wear when I bought it, which was fine, got me a great price

Thanks

This one is the oddjob btw (serial no comming up):


But first it looked like this (also not original though) :

Serial no on this refinished Pre EB sabre finaly : C004222
Any info ? Thanx

[Rod Trussbroken]

Hi Evil.

No records exist for the Pre-EB Basses and with regards to the Pre-EB Sabres the serials have no chronology at all.

Dates are recorded on the neck heel and in the body pocket but the neck has to be removed to view them.

If it's any help, the electronics on the Sabre changed in circa 1983 to a Sting Ray pre-amp, soapbar pickups and a lever switch replaced the toggle switches.
