SR5 s/n e45943

E45943 - DOB: 03/03/05

SR4 Black Cherry Burst Rosewood S/N E78537

mashter, welcome to the forum!
E78537 - DOB: 04/11/11

Origin of MM Sterling with the serial number: 0 06758.

basseman, this serial number doesn't look like an MM SN#- please check again and re-post

Are you sure? The headstock says Ernie Ball, and looking at all the features according to musicmanbass.org the DOB must be around 1986. Could you please recheck?
Thx, Erwin

Erwin, this serial number is not in our database, so musicmanbass.org is gonna be your only other reference. If you've found that your bass matches up with the description of an '86, then it must be so.

I have four Musicman Basses that I would like to get the year of production for. I have a general idea but it would be great to have dates. Thanks.

I'll have the seller check one more time and post some pics. The bass was bought between 2001 and 2003, serial number is at the bridge; is this normal for these models?

basseman,
If it's a Classic model, then the serial number will be on the bridge. Any other model bass or guitar will have the serial number on the neck plate.

Hi

Hey guys, new to the forums and new to bassing, stopping in to check on a serial number. Stingray E41464. Any info would be helpful. Also, i know there is probably a thread going already for this, but what can I do to help spot a fake? Thank you for your time.

How to spot a fake:
1) Post the serial number here and I'll let you know if it's valid, and if it matches the description.
2) Post pictures of the suspicious instrument either here, on th official pics thread, or here: http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-basses/47253-infadels-fake-stingrays.html. Someone will spot it and give you a solid answer.

Thank you! Here is the bass in question. Is everything original and fitting the description?
