I need some opinions on the HH stingrays, preferable would be a SR5 HH.
I already have 2 Bongo 5's and a SR5 single.

I don't have one ordered yet, but there is definitely an HH SR5 in my future. After playing one at the open house, I know I'll have to have one pretty soon.

I'm with Larry. Definitely a SR5 HH in my near future.

I'm pretty sure this was asked before, but I wasn't paying attention. I'll go sit in the corner for 5 minutes after i post this.

Are the 2 pickup Sterlings and Stingrays going to have the bridge pickup in the same position as the single versions, AND more importantly - are they going to sound the same as the originals if the bridge pickup is soloed? My gas has been acting up again lately.... I'm gunta have to do this right. There is a 5 string Stingray in my very near future.

Look, I'm going to start charging double for re-hashing old subjects.

Is there really a Sterling 5 in the future? Yes. Look for a prototype at NAMM. Production....? Who knows? Bongos took a while after their NAMM introduction (jan and then we didn't see them available until Oct).

question for Jack

Here's another pay-pal question for Jack and I think it was covered a while back but I don't remember.
Are the pickup covers going to remain black for all pickguard configs?

Good question! I don't think he answered that question before.
I would also like to know so I'll just send him 10 bucks
(my future tobaccoburst needs white pearloid & white pups).

Well I decided to jump in feet first and have ordered an SR5 HS - gotta be a killer bass. Sold all my Jazz planks. Blind faith I know but with this company you know its gonna be good.

Should also be the first on in the UK just after Xmas!!!

If I can ever get the funds, i'll order a SR5 HH. I feel at home on my SC SR5 so it should work out fine. I'm sure millions have asked this but is there any particular reason they haven't made a SR6 or do they just not feel like it? I'm too young to have a pay-pal account. Sorry. :p
