Music Man Stingray 5 H or HH ?

[Geri O]

I voted SR5HH because it gives you additional sounds which may be useful.

I have both - my SR5H ceramic is a wonderful bass with a great tone and resonance but my SR5HH Special has the resonance and sounds in a bass which is much lighter.

Robert Trujillo played an SR5 on some of Infectious Grooves' work, and of course Flea has on various tracks but notably Funky Monks. Also Phoenix in Linkin Park has used one - I think these were all SR5Hs.

I had 4 SR5s with the ceramic pups and that's 4 butt-kickings I've administered to myself.

I have another SR5 on the way that's supposed to be a 2017 model (Guitar Center sez they "think" it's made around that time, but they never know for sure and I don't care. It will be awesome). Don't know a lot about it past that, except it has the compensated nut. I meant to mention, it looks like the H model in the pic above.

I hope this one will sound somewhat similar. I loved those nasty ceramic pups.

Do you have a H or HH and how can you see if the bass has ceramic or alnico pups ?

Sorry for the silly question .

No silly questions...

It's an H model, or SR5 in some languages, I think. It's supposed to arrive January 2nd.

The ceramic pups were used from, I think '93 to '08 or something like that. I can never remember and someone mentioned it correctly earlier.
