Question for the Factory Boys

[bovinehost]

Do HH Sterlings and HH Stingrays have the same pickups and electronics?

Same for the HS models...........someone asked me and I though the answer was "No" but then I got to thinking, and that's always bad.

sr4 = alnico

Sterling = ceramic

 

[bdgotoh]

Are the preamps the same?

 

[Dargin]

They are different. The2 pup SR pre-amp is virtually identical to the SR h, and the Sterling 2 pup preamp is virtually identical to the H model.

Thanks, Scotty!

I suppose we should write the date down.

+1 Jacko, I'll be around to watch the store while you're gone and you'll have something very EBMMish for the Scream Parlor wall when you get back bro!

(No, it's not a green and red flamed Bongo...maybe next year if you keep it up!)

 

[bovinehost]

THanks for all of your help and support!

Peru will be what it always is, be that good or bad. I'll try to do what I can to make it a good time, and the parties will be righteous.

Thank YOU, Sterling, for a very interesting year. Many of us will never forget it, if only for the Open House, but I have other reasons to remember it fondly. You of all people know what I mean.

The 'help and support' part was easy. I loved every minute of it - still do, in fact.

As I said earlier, hope you and the wife and the boys have a wonderful holiday. Bass and guitars aside, you have good reason to be proud.

Wanna see my single H Bongo?

xoxoxoxo

Well, you ain't exactly the Henry Kissinger of Bass, but God knows I love you, Steebo.

And of course I always love presents.

Umm, no to that first part and ditto to the second part. Phone sex before Peru??

I guess the problems with the switching have been solved now as the dual pups have been released....
I only ask as my local shop was told by the importer that there are still problems? Can anyone shed any light please?

No problems on the two I've received in stock so far other than the fact that I think I'd glue my 5-way in center position for max thump.

 

[Jazzbassman23]

If I recall correctly, and that's a big if, the switch problems had to do with supply rather than function.
