Sterling 5 String Wishlist

[slaine01]

Hi,
Already own a Stringray HH 5 and have just bought a Sub 5 so I guess this makes me doubley happy
I am hanging for the release of the Sterling 5 but am interested in any ideas on how it will look as far as configuration of pickguard etc.
I love the look of the Sub 5, as I don't like the pickguard used on the Stingray 5, especially the oval guard and the steel looking pots and cover.
Do you think this will the look of the new Sterling 5 ? - just curious.

I don't know - curious - but I'll bet it's gonna look friggin' great in the '08LE color scheme!

Oops - just let out my great idea...

There has been nothing said by anyone who would actually have a clue, so any speculation is just...speculation, and baseless at that. BP said that we would see/hear it here first, so all we can do is wait patiently.

We are very close..it will be the same body size as the sterling and the neck will be a litle bigger with the same string spacing as the sr5 and the neck profile will be a little racier thanb the sr5 and there is one more surprise that i will let out when we unviel the proto

It will have 2 single coil pickups? Hmm ....same size body huh ?? That's the issue I have with the 4 string, I'm trying to find a comfortable spot for my right arm and hand. That is my only issue and I keep trying though because I love the sound

This brief burst of teaser material will make me absolutely nuts until the unveiling. Thanks Mr Poppa!

Oh great! Sterling5 news!
This is so cool. Coming to this forum and read stuff like this!

When I bought my Sterling I allready wondered why there wasn't any 5 string version.
I think they're gunna sell like crazy.

As for BP's "surprise," I'm kind of hoping it is...

No Pickguard

Sculpted horns like the SR5 (HAWT)
Dargie option.
