If you love the SR5 vibe, a Ray35 is a crazy value! I have had mine a bit over a month, and I love it so much, I truly feel no need whatsoever to buy a "real" SR5!
I have owned dozens of budget basses, but my Ray35 captures the vibe of its high end brother far better than any bass I have ever played with the possible exception of the Lakland 55-02.
