Was wondering if I could get a DOB for a fretless SR5 I just bought? Serial is 55278. It's a wine-red transparent finish over an ash body with a fabulously figured neck! Maybe someone could get me a date while I just sit here and stare at it, happily gobsmacked!

1992 SR4 Fretless

Hi. I have 2 incredible Stingray basses. A 2005 Black SR5 with Maple neck and fingerboard, and I recently Bought a SR4 Fretless that I would really like some more info on. Its Beautiful!! It has a Birdseye maple neck and a natural finish and black pickguard. The fingerboard looks too light in color to be rosewood. I would love to know the type of timbers used. I would also like to know its value as it is nearly 20 years old and in immaculate condition. If it is a rare valuable one then I will endeavour to keep its condition. If not I will be playing it hard. I have the original warranty sheet and final inspection sheet which says the serial number is 35344 by RD Date 10-22-92. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Zac

Welcome to the forum! We use Pau Ferro wood for our fretless fingerboards. If you want to check what your bass would sell for, I would suggest to check the past history sales on ebay. Since we only sell new, we do not have any used prices or values.

Hi!

New to this forum. I bought a nice Stingray5 HS earlier this year.
Wondering when it left the factory?
What are the pole pieces, alnico or ceramic?
Any other interesting info?

Thank you very much!

Thanks for the info Aziah. Would pau ferro have been used back in 94 when mine was made?

Yes, yours should still be Pau Ferro

Hi Benny and welcome to the forum! Do you have the serial number on your bass? I can look up the information you are requesting once I get that number.
