That's really nice kdsi- and equipped w/a non-matching headstock?! (rare)
I can't get past the old SR4H, it's such an awesome bass.

uh oh, those pics made me want a maple board . . . for about 15 seconds
this time (it keeps getting longer)

=== better go check my temperature.

Buttercream is my FAVORITE EB color of all time! I'd like to get my hands on a BC SR5 HS. Not likely to happen, but a man can dream right?

The serial number will tell exactly what was built and maybe why it was built.

You got a BC body there and a great looking neck. I would call it a one off myself and be the happiest camper in the world.


That headstock is right good looking. I love the figuring of it. You wanna sell it ping me fast please.

E52771 - but I can't get into the system to access what's up with that serial #... it is totally weird to see one without a matching headstock, that was included in the price of the Buttercream Limited. Perhaps they ordered it in rosewood and liked the maple better and played 'paper dolls' with a neck from another bass?

Mystery bass. This is excitement. :)

Forget my offer now it would need 5 strings for me to spend the money that bass is worth.

I have had a conversation with someone about this bass. Dave Jeffries?

I think it was Dave (musicman nut).

If I'm not entirely making this up, this was an 'artist' bass.

I am immensely happy with my 2005 Ltd Edition B / C 'Ray -
That was the colour Ii wanted when I started looking to buy a Stingray.
I like the look of yours with the non-matching headstock - sets it apart from the other 2005 Ltd Ed b/c's.
