    I got these quite a while back to go in my Sterlings,and Stingray 5,but I liked the original pu just fine,so these never got used. Brand new,never even opened the box. These go for 140.00 and 149.00 at Best Bass Gear which is where I got them. If you want the Stingray tone in your Sterling,these are the ones you need! 100.00 each,firm, shipped to the lower 48 states only. Money order or cashiers check,no Paypal.

    Standard Music Man spacing.
     
  4. How does the 5 string pickup sound compared to the MusicMan tone??

    The alnico magnet is the original Music Man tone. Put these in an SR5,and it will sound more like a Stingray.
     
  6. Hmm I'll have to see how well I can route my OLP Stingray 5 pickgurd, but I'm interested.

    From the Best Bass gear site. "Music Man® replacement - for five string basses...the soap bar shape that has no 'ears' and narrow spacing. Pickup length = 4.415", width = 1.950"

    I put the Nordy 4.3 into my Sterling. I love the sound.

    Bump for an awesome price!
     
  9. Yeah, the OLP 5's come with the Musicman 4 string pickups with ears, but if I just enlarge the pickup route on the pickguard hopefully it will work.
