CElton, thank you for the pickup spec and the link.
I have been working on the setup for this bass. The strings were a mile high and the neck had way too much relief. But I think that I might have it setup now with a very flat neck and fairly low action. This bass was sweet to set up other than trying to get the neck to move. Lots of patience paid off.

Here's my stingray and I in action :]
Stingrays totally rock!
(and funk and jazz for that matter)

Hi guys, would you help me please? I need a pickguard for a bass that was modelled after a '76 Stingray. I need to know if any SR guards will fit. The most important thing is the measurement from the end of the neck to the edge of the pickup. Can I get some of you guys to measure from the butt end between the A and D string to the edge of the pickup (side nearest the neck). Mine measures a little over 4.5". Please let me know the year of your bass, if the measurement is close to mine, so I can order the right guard. Thanks a bunch!!!
It is gonna vary a bit from bass to bass. The CLF era instruments were not as tightly QA-ed as the Ball era versions. I think the pickup placement has shifted a tiny bit over the years as well.

Nice! Couple of numbers for you guys if you want them... Welcome!

It´s a 2002 Stingray 5 in Mint Condition
BTW: Does anyone know where I can get a Stingray T-Shirt like Ed Friedland is wearing it in this Youtube Video?

Area, EBMM sells accessories from their website. You may need to check with the Europe distributor, String N Things.

+1, waiting is rough. My first custom bass order took 9 1/2 months, so I feel your pain for sure!!! Good luck, let us know when you get it!
#97 for you!

A lot of the Rays have that teardrop-shaped pickguard instead of the oval one that I have. Is that a different model of StingRay or was that the design of all Rays at one time?
This thread is amazing, but you guys are killing me! I'm filling my bass pr0n folder with nothing but 'Rays, but then again, how can I complain? 
I almost got a StingRay as my first big time bass around two years ago, but ended up with a Fender J instead. I'm REALLY itching for a 'Ray now, but its a far off dream at the moment.
May I ask though, if anyone has an image of a StringRay with 3-Tone Sunburst and Tort pickguard, could you send that my way?

Yup. Is that the difference?
EDIT: Thanks, CElton. Just checked the EBMM site and the 5 strings have that pickguard. Never noticed that before. Thanks again.

Damn, I love that color
Can I get a #? I just got my Stingray today and I must say, its probably the highest quality bass for the price...
I didn't have to do anything, its perfect from the box.
The day this bass is stolen or gets damaged is the first day I will cry over a bass...
