Stingray build time

[Timi]

Tried a search but couldn't find anything on this.

I'm not ordering anything fancy, just a single pickup 4 string Stingray in white. What sort of wait time should I expect currently?

 

[Franky]

i think its 6 months, but i could be totally wrong

 

[mynan]

I think they are averaging closer to 4 months. My LE Bongo came in 3 months.

 

[Dargin]

Where are you located?

I was quoted 4 months on my "custom" from Beaver at BC and Brandt at TPB. I got lucky though because Beaver was able to "morph" a current order into my bass and it's now on its way so I only waited a month.

Im in the Channel Islands (UK). When i ordered my Pacific Blue-burst Stingray 4, my dealer said that if it wasnt in stock (luckily it was), that it would take 6 months

Hope you get it soon!

So somewhere between 3-6 months it seems. I can live with that, waited 12 months for my Ric...

Where are you located? Dargin can probably give you some good info here. I hear he has "inside" information...........

Sorry to hijack, but if Dargin has inside info, I wonder where my Bongo 5 Unlined fretless in Medallion Gold is? )

Oh BTW I'm in NY.

I hope there is just 3 months max., this case I am accept my new MM- Stingray 5 PBB in end of October. Can not wait, but I have to!

 

[Bloodfist]

I waited 4 months for mine.

 

[oli@bass]

6 months and counting.

My dealer told me, -no longer than 3 months.
These are the slowest months in this year, I am telling you.
If dealer right, I still have a month. arghhhh

My BCB SR5HH ordered Jan 06 delivered Apr 06

My DD Bongo 4HP ordered July 06 delivered Apr 07 (due to issues beyond EBMM's control)

My 07LE SR4HP ordered May 07 delivered Sep 07

My IB Sterling 5HS ordered Aug 08 ETA Nov 08 (as per Pete Dubaldo)

So the average for me is 3 to 4 months.

If there's nothing special to the order, there might already be one in the pipeline somewhere and Dargin can probably direct you to the dealer where it's headed.

 

[syciprider]

But they're all special
