I would like to know the details for a Stingray 4 H (2-EQ) with black body and white marble pickguard with serial E18998

Allegedly it's from 2002 but it has a down-sized bridge with string-through-body arrangement which makes me a bit wary. Any details about it's origin/model/materials/pickup type ... would be welcome since some people mention that some basses with this bridge type were actually produced/assembled in Japan.

From the information I have gathered my guess (hope, really) is that the down-sized bridge was a special order from Musik Meyer (Germany), but the year and serial don't match 100% with the info out there.

Hi folks, just acquired a swanky stingray classic 4 and I need some info on the bass. It maybe a 2010 in a coral red but the previous owner thinks it might have been a refinish, just wondering if I supply the serial number I might be able to get the original factory details. The SN is BO51912. Cheers.

E18998 brings up a Stingray 5 in black. Could you double check the serial number?

Hi, just purchased a sr4 classic, natural finish. Wondering if it was actually built in 2013.
Serial is B057571
Thanks!

 

[John Kramer]

A.J., belated thanks for the Sterling information--and Happy New Year!

[John Kramer]

A.J., one more Sterling question: I have a natural finish Sterling HS 4-string, serial number F23640. I think it was manufactured around 2009. Could you provide the DOB?

Thank you.

John

E18998 brings up a Stingray 5 in black. Could you double check the serial number?

My bad, the number ends in 3: E18993

As I mentioned, I would appreciate any available information ( origin/model/materials/pickup type/ ... )

 

[l4st.ninja]

Cheers, for the help AJ. Looks like my coral red classic is all original condition, just a bit of mojo from use has brought out the undercoat, great news considering I purchased it for a steal from someone who thought that meant it was a refinish

Now, I gotta think on some pickguard ideas lol

 

[shiva82]
