Who designed the Sabre?

[Northray]

I know the Sabre was released after the StingRay, but were they both designed by the same group of individuals (Ball, Fender, and Walker)?

Sorry if this is already answered very clearly elsewhere - the new classic Sabre bass has got me interested in its history.
