EBMM Sterling VS Stingray

Tommy internet has not been in households in masses in even two decades yet, people 70+ would probably find no interest i online forums it was not around for most of there life
tommy my b day is on over 3 months so i am a teen still lol...........i expect a new bass over and out
 
Here we go:

- The "Sterling by Music Man" basses just began production this year and are made outside the U.S.

- The "MusicMan Sterling" bass is made in California and has been in production for many years. In that respect it is similar to the StingRay, albeit a bit more "streamlined" in appearance with the smaller body and thinner neck. Someone has explained it as, StingRay is to Sterling as P-Bass is to J-Bass and I guess that's about the best analogy I've seen.

I think this was a huge mistake on EBMM part to name the korean basses "Sterling Musicman" Its going to create a lot of confusion.
 
wow...
this thread started out ok, but it took a nosedive into a pile of fresh turn at the top of page 2...

Getting back on topic, I prefer the Stingray neck. My SR4 has full-bell-tone brass bawls.
However, I did fall in love with a Sterling 5 HH most recently. But I think I'll have to get my engineering degree before I can afford one.
