Can a new Sterling HS be ordered with non ceramic magnets?

I have a Sterling 5 HS...the cermamic magnets are fantastic.

Same here - if I could've gotten ceramic pups for my BFR SR5 HH, I'd probably still have it... Instead, I traded it for my Sterling 5 HS and some cash - and never regretted it...

how different are the necks on the sterling 5 and the stingray 5? I know the SR4 definitely doesn't have the same neck as the Sterling 4, but what about the 5?

I'm pretty certain they are identical, give or take tolerances for each instrument being slightly different.
