Personally I think flat it's pretty similar. I'd keep bass and mid flat, and bump the treble.

EBMM StingRay Special Club

I have a 2008 Sterling Fretless 5 that is awesome. The only thing that would be better is a new Stingray or Sterling fretless with the new electronics!!
Well, got mine in 9.2 lbs. Wife weighed it for me. I'll have to report back tomorrow once the kids go to sleep and I can play it. I never win RNG.
I’ve got a regular old Stingray 5 that’s 9.4# and it feels light and balances well too.
Well after playing it last night and actually taking off the morning (had to take the kid to the Dr.) I shipped it back to MF. I just couldn't fall in love with it. I played one locally before and liked it in the store but at this price I need to love it. I played it at home through my 9.2 shuttle max and streamliner 900 to a baer ml115. If this was my only bass I might have kept it. It can get close to P, J, of course StingRay and all in between. But since I own a p,j, stingray, and a bfr sterling(the model not the brand) I dont feel that I need this bass. So next week check MF for an open box 4hh charcoal sparkle! Since this isn't a limited edition I might pick one up again dowe the line used.
I forgot to say, a svelt 8.8 lbs.
Beauty! Congrats, awesome weight. Was the pearl pg a custom job? I’ve seen some grabber blues with and without pearl as well
I think so too! I think any of the specials with a white guard would look great with a pearly. Like a Charger Green or Droped Copper.

After being strictly a Fender guy, out of nowhere I had begun a hard lust after one of the EBMM Stingray Classic 2EQs; but once I found a StingRay Special out in the wild I totally swooned over the roasted maple neck and re-voiced 3EQ preamp of the new Special. Keeping it Classic, I finally got down on a knee and made this Natural 4H StingRay Special my very own, and hereby submit for membership in this distinguished club.

Posted in the wrong thread earlier. But after trying out the 5 string thing for a few weeks with a cheaper Sire and enjoying it: I decided to take the plunge on an Aqua Sparkle 5HH
