no the grain is different on the ebay bass. his stolen bass was much nicer, and in better condition, and a different case.

This is mine:

This is the one on eBay:

When I first saw this I almost had a heart attack!! What do you guys think? Mine wasn't knicked on the bottom like this one - but with it being stolen and all, you never know what happened to it.

This guy has no feedback - I think I'm going to send him an innocent email just to see his response.

BTW: The grain on the upper horn appears to be different than what was on mine. What do you think?

They are different basses. The grain on the arm bevel is decidedly different. Your pickguard is pearl. His just appears to be white.

I'm not sure if I should feel good or bad about that...

My heart jumped through the roof when I read this thread..............

Sorry. Its not a match. So close though. The grain patterns do not match, and that pickguard is white. Not white pearl.

If someone can read that serial number, I can look it up and see what store got it from us....Just to be sure, but my crappy monitor here prevents me from being able to read it

Thanks - I've already emailed the seller about the SN.

I'll let you know.

I enlarged it in Photoshop and it appears to be E04196.

 

[tkarter]

Although I can't see it great I am pretty sure the serial on the Ebay SR 5 is
E04196

Well, according to Gav's website, that would place it sometime in 1998. That's way too old. Mine was purchased new in June 2004.

Jon?

 

[jongitarz]

It was built 8/21/98 sold to Music.com.. The area code is 856 Looks like its not yours Chris...But we will keep our eyes open for it.

Thanks!!

Boy, it is great to know that there are eyes all over, looking out for each other.

These are very close basses, with the intonation settings and the pickup switch in the same positions.

I inverted the pics....no match in the wood grain either:
