    Stingray build time

    Tried a search but couldn't find anything on this.

    I'm not ordering anything fancy, just a single pickup 4 string Stingray in white. What sort of wait time should I expect currently?

    I think they are averaging closer to 4 months. My LE Bongo came in 3 months.

    I was quoted 4 months on my "custom" from Beaver at BC and Brandt at TPB. I got lucky though because Beaver was able to "morph" a current order into my bass and it's now on its way so I only waited a month.

    Im in the Channel Islands (UK). When i ordered my Pacific Blue-burst Stingray 4, my dealer said that if it wasnt in stock (luckily it was), that it would take 6 months

    Hope you get it soon!

    My dealer told me, -no longer than 3 months.
    These are the slowest months in this year, I am telling you.
    If dealer right, I still have a month. arghhhh

    My BCB SR5HH ordered Jan 06 delivered Apr 06

    My DD Bongo 4HP ordered July 06 delivered Apr 07 (due to issues beyond EBMM's control)

    My 07LE SR4HP ordered May 07 delivered Sep 07

    My IB Sterling 5HS ordered Aug 08 ETA Nov 08 (as per Pete Dubaldo)

    So the average for me is 3 to 4 months.
