Finally got a Stingray 5! How old?

[evilgus]

Hi folks,

After many years of playing bass, I finally bought myself a beautiful used Stingray 5, and man, do I wish I'd done it a lot sooner!!! It's a beauty, natural finish, rosewood board, virtually no sign of wear and sounds fantastic! Played it last night at rehearsal and I was blown away, so many killer tones within easy reach!

The only serial # I could find was on the bridge, 56126. How old would that make it? The seller thought it was '95 or '96, but it's almost too good condition to be that old! I'm not fussed to be honest, but would be more amazing if it is that old!

Cheers,

EG

I am sure 5Stringer will see this but, there is a sticky thread specifically dealing with serial numbers and history

Music Man Serial Number Database

Thanks, I did look through the Sticky, but didn't see any numbers close to mine. Apologies to everyone as I'm sure you get heaps of these annoying Noob posts.

No problem, just post the serial on that thread and Dan will be by sooner or later to give you any info that he has on your bass...if he doesn't see it here first.
