Nice piece I'm sure!

Can I get a DOB for my Black Bongo 4HH F08783? I'd really appreciate it.

Hey, Lonney, likewise! Your Sterling was completed 5/16/02 and was shipped to World of Strings in Long Beach, CA. The color of your bass is called Midnight Blue Sparkle, your neck of course is maple, and the original pickguard would be Black Pearloid.
Nice bass I bet - you should post a pic on the Pics thread.

Stingray 5 HH color?
Just purchased a Stingray 5 HH. I'm wondering what the color is called. She's beautiful and it looks like Honey Burst, but I can't quite tell. DOB would be great also. Serial# E54702
Edit: OK, I used the locator on the MM site and found my SR5 in the store's inventory. It is definitely Honey Burst. DOB would still be great to know. Thanks. It also said the build # was 154-70-20-03. Is that correct?

Hi, I have owned this bass for a while now, and I am delighted with it. I have been asked a few times, how old the bass is, and I just don't know! so I would be great if someone here could could answer the question for me?
Serial # E14216
My guess would be 99/00 but this is just a guess !

I bought my 30th right after my kid was born, hoping he'd want a bass one day and it would be his. So when was this one made? s/n E55395

mullac, That would be a good guess as your Black Sparkle bass left the factory on 04/21/00.

Mike, yours was probably one of the first ones made, and was completed on 5/05/06. Nice! I imagine that the bass will have to be "broken in" for some years before you pass it down -
