Bassman Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 the Sting signature begins in 2001 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk8 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 doesn't the serial number suggest 2000 ish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0353203 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 Sorry guys - my mistake - I put the serial number into www.guitardaterproject.org/fender.aspx but forgot to tick the 'crafted in Japan' box. It seems to now come out at somewhere between 1999-2002, so lets plump for 2001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumnote Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I may be wrong but I think this a 1954 not 51 the 51 has no forearm contour and I think the sting does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0353203 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 I may have got this wrong aswell - dates clearly not a strong point. Oh well, let's just say its a fender bass and it makes it very loud noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no 'Sting' fretboard inlay until much later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munkonthehill Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 i love the look of these basses, just wish sting had less of an ego and decided to stick his sig in a less obvious place... however, stunning bass (minus the grafitti hahaha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
