Greenpunk, welcome to the Forum! Your bass was built on Aug 16 2005 and was shipped to France. It should sport a Textured Black finish.

Cheers,

Dan

This Black/Maple StingRay bass was completed on 7/22/92 and was shipped to the old Veneman Music Company in Rockville, Maryland, now a Guitar Center.

Hey Dan,

could you give me please anything you have on B027019. My guess (after some investigation) it that she's born in '88. However, any and all info also regarding to the woods used and other historic specialties around that time is appreciated greatly.

Thanks

Hey,

I would really like to know the date my bass was finished, the serial number is E42329.
Could you please give me any data you have about this bass?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Derek. I recently acquired SR5 #54307, which appears to be a 1993 or 1994 production. It's not in your database yet.

It's black, maple, black pg. Just as a 'Ray should be!

It needs a new set of pots, though. I either can't feel the centers, they are creaky, or both. I've sent an email to MM customer service to see if they can supply or recommend a source for replacements. Any other advice?

Hi, Any info on F08250 would be appreciated!

**lowliferumble** · 11-10-2008, 10:04 AM

Thanks 5Stringer!!! Now to figure out how it got to the cool coast !!!

oli, you are probably right on the date, unforfortunately our records on the early EBMM StingRays is sadly lacking, as in nonexistent -

I gather you have already checked Gav's website?

As far as woods, though, it was mostly based on finish color. Solid colors, Blueburst, and VSB were Poplar. Trans Red was Alder, and the rest of the translucent finishes were Ash.

Hi Dan, thanks! I checked Gav's site and came up with dating the year as '88 from the info I found there.

It's a black body unlined fretless. I'd love to know whether fretless fretboards made around then were Pau Ferro or Rosewood.
