Question Looking at buying an '08 StingRay 4 str

[redman24]

This is a new unused 2008 model. Are there any significant differences between '08, '09 and '10? I am a fender fretless performer, but think this might be good for some needed fretted work. The dealer will give me a discount for being older, but not a whole lot, so I want to make sure that I know what I am getting. Any comments would be appreciated. Cheers

There wont be any significant differences...in fact, I don't think there's any.

There are no differences in Stingray construction or hardware between '08 and '10, so if the price is right, you're sweet.

Thanks guys. It does have a single pickup, so I am still deciding.
