Question stingRay 5 without compartment's batery

[Gravesend Black]

It's a fake I guess. 4 bolts, wrong place for "made in San Luis Obispo" and the neck wood looks strange to me. And ppl already posted about wannabe-classic appearance.

yes sure for this two points ... for neck plate and made in strange for me also !
Another idea ... sometimes i see them make big reparations on guitar ... and here, they use what they have for make before sell in 2nd hand's shop

No Way. EVERYTHING is wrong, as in EVERY
single thing.

Tuners .... just look at them.
PU .... should NOT have small lugs like a 4-string.
Decals .... wrong.
PG .... to big, too few screws.
Control plate .... thaz for SR4 ONLY.
Bridge .... wrong screw locations, no logo.
Neck Plate .... toadally wrong.
Body .... not rear loaded.

It's a fake. Period. No Musicman on tuners or bridge. No slab body. No mutes on bridge. Stamp on headstock is in wrong place. Musicman never made a 5 string with the crescent that wasn't a classic, to the best of my knowledge. And, they certainly wouldn't release even an overseas only limited edition without their normal hardware.

I hope you didn't pay more that $150 for it

Definitely a fake.

 

[Musicman Nut]

LOOKS TO BE 100% COUNTERFIT. & Thats a Fact, lol

 

[scorp]

Thanks for all Guys
Very instructive.

I hope you didn't pay more that $150 for it

Don't worry that was 175$ exactly
But that was funny to find that here cause i don't think a lot of people know Musicman in this country.

... and i can say Fake Musicman still better than Fake Fender
(Like in real life ...)

Also, no serial number on the back in the photos posted as far as I can see.

 

[pete bass]

So obvious a rip off copy....Wonder what it sounds like ?

 

[scorp]

difficult to have a good amplifier ... i must find an Ampeg now ... fake also of course

Sound seems not very bad ... not very punchy, but nor bad
