to qoute a famous non-Kazakhstani "Wa-wa-wee-wa!"
Somehow I missed Dargin's listing of the tone block. Worth the price of admission on its own.

Doh!
Thanks for waking me, Sam!
I can't believe I forgot about the preamp! Well, until my Dargie Bongo arrives, I'm without an EBMM bass for reference... That's my cop-out and I'm sticking to it! 
Doh!

Tom, I can't disagree with you there. Yet I'd still love to find a way to blame NorM.

NorM has been silent with his reviews of his twins....I think there is an adjustment period going on.....

chiming in again...........
....not sure what else to add, "waa-waa-wee-waa" kind of sums it up!
I don't even want to guess at what the Sterling5 and Bongo6 (ooo, that looks kinda kooky like that) are going to be. this 20th anni. SR5 IS FREAKIN' UNREAL BP!!! absolutely exciting and fresh not only for the MM family of basses but for basses in general. Classic lines but nuts stuff goin' on under the hood...er, bridge...
BTW, BP, did Beth and Kevin share any of the Cadbury chocolate bars or Smarties with you yet??

I cannot repeat Dargin's vocabulary during his telephonic review of what this sucker sounded like when they fired it up.
It was, how you say, mostly very positive, heh heh.
Just looking at what's been incorporated and the work that's going into each one of these, the woods, the finish...I would expect these are going to be somewhat more expensive than the 30th Stingrays.
Boys, I have no idea how I'm going to swing it - it may require selling the child for medical experiments, taking a hard look at what basses are expendable, selling my frilly things on eBay - but I think this is going to be the definitive Stingray 5.
(Especially if the 30th SR4 was any indication, and I suspect it was.)
Schwing!

Erica's would probably fetch quite a bit more.
And I got to play with NorM's twins the other night. I ain't no guitarist but I was smitten. NorM as well. He may be a little slack around these parts due to work and a certain wedding coming up.
