I shall look forward to seeing how yours looks with the white guard on (...not that there's anything wrong with the black one, of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsay777 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Hey folks, some beautiful basses in here! I took this for another thread but here's my 2014 Sterling HH in Trans Gold - Still as clean as the day I got it. Gotta admit I keep finding myself looking at Stingray Specials this past few days... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiMarco Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) Just in! Serial says 2015. Never has been played. Lowered the action quite a bit and the pups accordingly. The low B is MUCH WOW on it, so much definition! Edited October 29, 2020 by DiMarco 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CutlassI Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Maybe one more.. 😁 Tony Levin style "peach" colored SR5.. never took the neck of but I bought it like '92, so early one.. Sold it, regretted it, saw it again at a concert, told the guy I would buy it back whenever, 15 years later he called me up.. He changed the PG to the one on these pictures.. I changed the PG back to as close to original as I could find.. updated pictures to follow whenever I get around to it.. 😅 Let me know what you think.. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @CutlassI and welcome to Basschat and to another MM fan! 👍 I'm mildly curious as to the rectangular marks around the battery cover - looks like tape residue(?). Just wondering if it was simply to cover the battery cover itself or was something else attached here? (I appreciate you might not know if this was something done by the previous owner you mentioned). That's a fair bit of mojo on your SR5, certainly more than on my own (see pic).

What color is yours MM5? 😁 Mine started out as white with a plain white pickguard. Born on 5th Dec 1989, over the years the colour has 'matured' into a sort of creamy off-white. I got it in 1997 and the only mod was when I fitted the white pearl guard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
