Get one soon, they're (unfortunately) getting discontinued. I love mine and would never get rid of it, good luck in your search!

I know it's not a 5 string but Arnie's site has a 4 Bongo with LED's and it's located in Belgium.

That is a sweet SR5. Bright blue and maple is just .... mmmmmmm

If they Music Man made a lefty SR5 HH I might have bought one to see what it would sound like to split both pickups. It might be like the best of both jazz and Stingray worlds.
