<div class="bbWrapper">I am looking at getting a Musicman Stingray EX from Japan and I have read that they are made of USA Musicman parts put together in Japan.<br /> <br /> This is a maybe 2010 with a fitted body (not a slab), no string-through bridge/no mutes and 3 ban eq.<br /> <br /> My question is if this is true that it is the same woods, hardware and especially is it the same pick-up and electronics as a USA EB Musicman.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I have a Stingray EX 3 bander, late 90s. Yes, it&#039;s the same original hardware, electronics and pickups. They made the bodies and necks in Japan, finished them and put the original EBMM guts on them. Great basses, there&#039;s a certain mojo about them, but they&#039;re basically EBMM Stingrays, but not identical (the back of the neck where it goes in the pocket is slightly different and the finish is slightly different - their maple fretboard necks all have finish on the front of the neck, while keeping oil&amp;wax on the back).<br /> <br /> Also, that&#039;s not 2010, I don&#039;t think they made them after like 2003, you can tell by the old pickup pole pieces which aren&#039;t rounded/bevelled. EBMM introduced bevelled pole pieces in mid 2003 and I don&#039;t think I&#039;ve seen a single EX with the newer pickup/preamp combo. They all have the 90s genes/mojo about them.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">If the EX basses were made from U.S.-made parts, did they also get the usual stamped dates and information inside the neck pocket? That might be one way to find more information.</div>

EBMM cannot give you any information about them as they don&#039;t have them in their database, unfortunately.</div>
