No fivers in the classic series?
That will make it possible for me to resist!

I find this post real amusing, AtomicPunk
A brand new SR5 is pretty much the same as an 1987 model, so a classic wouldn't be nearly as much fun as the SR4's based on the 70's Stingrays...

Those necks are seriously beautiful but the birdseye on the back of the painted headstock neck has got me drooling. So so classy. Good stuff.

Seriously, those necks are great - just perfect. The ebony will look superb with Shell Pink or Sonic Blue (and the other ones probably) - and the maple with the other colours or natural will be my choice of orders.
Went to my local dealer last week and asked about ordering a 'Classic Collection Stingray'! He was stoked to hear about them and phoned up Strings and Things immediately - soounds like he wants to order a couple for his own use as well!

+1!
I like the old logo on the headstock, but I just can't stand finished necks ... Your can't move your hand on 'em!

I don't know if this question has been answered already or not (forgive me if yes), but are the Classics going to be available as lefties (and/or as SLO Specials)? Thanks.

As I thought, but it would be nice to be able to get a 5 in the new colors.

Absolutely beautiful! I drool over a good maple neck. It's a close call between the maple and the stripes, but I think the stripes just about have it!

Those are absolutely bee-yoo-tee-ful. Enough for this normally rosewood guy to switch teams. Very hamburgler-esque on the one neck. I love it.

How about an SR5 with the new colour and figured neck option with either maple or ebony board also

Happy to stick with the classic SR4 with neck upgrade though..................for now. Looks like I might have to re-think the shell pink from what Zombi said in the Bass Player Live post.
Anyone got an idea when orders can first be placed yet?

I mis-spoke here. It wasn't ebony. It's REALLY nice, dark rosewood that I mistook for ebony in the pic in this thread. Unless I'm mistaken, that's the neck on the shell pink Classic Ray that Rex bought at the show.
These pics are good, but they don't do the necks justice. They're stunning in person.
