I just got this amazing bass in a trade today. I cleaned it up, set it up with my favorite strings...and holy heck, this thing BUMPS. Intonation is dead on with my ST300; some of the best intonation across the neck that I've ever seen.

Yup, that's a Sterling.I know I'm wrong quite often, but that looks like a Sterling to me.

Really like that color combo! What strings?

You both beat me to it. Was unsure if it could be some kind of HH Classic SR5 thing but then I remembered those only come as H, then saw the 5 bolt easy access neck joint, Sterling 5. Great bass indeed.
Nice! Trying out a Sterling is on my "to do" list - they're quite rare in my neck of the woods.
Gracias AmigoYour neck of the woods (and all of Nova Scotia) is probably my favourite place in the world, you lucky man! (sorry for the off-topic)
What's the actual color on that bass? That's devastatingly handsome!
