Question Stingray 5 neck interchangeability

[Me4Bass]

Will a 6 bolt standard stingray 5 neck fit into a 20th anniversary body with it's a 5 bolt pattern wand more contouring? I'm thinking of swapping a fretted 20th ann. neck with a standard fretless neck. I expect some possible redrilling.

Anyone tried this?
Thanks

Dont do it

Would the folks at Ernie Ball sell me a 5-bolt contoured fretless neck that would plop into the 20th ann 5-string?
I would never drill into the body, but perhaps a new hole in the back of a 6 bolt neck would'nt matter much.

Sounds like you need a fretless !

I have a 4string fretless, but imagine the 5string 20th as a fretless perfection, strung EADGC.

Agree, a nice bass, am pretty sure that there out there!
The only way you will get a neck from EBMM is as a direct replacement for a damaged one (old for new etc) apart from that look for a trade.
