t0t0, welcome to the Forum and congratulations to your new (at least to you) StingRay. Natural Velvet was a very cool finish indeed. This bass was completed on 10/09/97

Hi Dan, is it possible to find any info on autumn redrise?

Such as how long it was offered for, possibly how many...

Thanks

Zak, it was only offered and produced in 2001. StingRays in that color are less than 20.

Hi, E33595 is my serial number.
Could you tell me the birthday of my bass please?
thank you very much.

 

[5Stringer]

Just wondered if you know at all, but at the time, the shop I bought it from reckoned it was the first translucent purple in the UK... is that true, or just a overexcited salesman hamming it up?


Cheers again.

Sorry so long getting back to your question, but this takes a lot of research. Turns out your salesman was correct, the bragging rights to the earliest-built StingRay in Trans purple is the one you have ... or had, if you've already sold it.

There was a second one built and sent to the U.K a few weeks later. There were less than 50 StingRays built in this finish total.

Oh .. and by the waay, a warm welcome to the wacky Forum!

Newbie, just joined.

I have a 90's Stringray, natural finish with a maple fingerboard. Serial number is B027247. What year was it made?

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Forum Reggie.

No official records exist for the early EB Sting Rays with the "B" serial numbers. However, comparing your serial with others similar numbers, your Bass appears to be 1988...especially if the headstock logo is solid Black and the two little Musicmen are shown from the waist up only
