We've got both the HH and HS models in stock now and have put them through the paces pretty well! Good stuff! Now we have more Music Man goodness than ever!
Anyone have any questions about the new models...existing models...pics of your MM baby...whatever it is, post it here!
Peace! |

Traded in a Jazz I got a few weeks ago that just didn't do it for me. I happier now.
I would have given you a shot James if it wasn't a trade in. I'm not cruel enough to burn a guy out of a commission unless he's a jerk.

The rock is just that powerful.  |

| | | Stingray 5 HS Well, what can you you tell us about the Stingray 5 HS? The addition of the, dare I say, "Jazz" - ish single coil pickup, intrigues me. I've always wanted a white on white w/ white pg bass but thought the maple on the Musicman may be a bit too bright for most of my gigs. (horn bands, R&B, dance disco stuff) I'm now thinking that the added single coil may just be the remedy.
Whadya think? What are folks saying about this set up?
Also, why haven't you posted pics of the new basses. Musicman's site's product finder says you gotta bunch of the dual pickup basses in stock. s'this true?
thanks! |

The HS SR5 is way cool! It's pretty much what you'd expect, classic SR5 with the added versatility of a J style pup...no smoke and mirrors there. It does the job well and both the HS and HH models are a welcome breath of fresh air for the StingRay line.
The only complaint that I might have is that there is a noticeable drop in output when soloing the J pup. But that's to be expected with single coil pickups.
As far as the inventory, YES, we have about 10-15 SRs in stock that aren't on the site yet. We're in the process of a fairly significant renovation at the shop that has us backed up a bit on the site.
But, when we do get them out there, be prepared! Part of our renovation was to add a photo suite that allows us to take some KILLER pictures!!! You might not be able to resist when you start browsing our site and we've totally refreshed the pictures of the basses...
By the way, any bass you see on our site is the ACTUAL bass that you get when you place an order online.
Peace! |

Keep an eye out for much more action on the site as we continue to improve!

This "style" and quality will be the norm for all of the basses on our site. Oh, and when you order a bass from us, you're ordering the exact bass you see...not one just like it...

I'm sure with the two pickup Sterling getting ready to come out he's already got the 5'er in the works; just hope it has that cool SR-5 look!  |
