Check out this stellar 2018 Ernie Ball Music Man Sterling 5 in the rare/discontinued Firemist Purple finish! This thing is an absolute beast with two ceramic humbuckers, compensated nut, Maple neck, Maple fretboard and ergonomic Alder (I think) body. This one is in Excellent condition, showing only faint signs of play wear and includes an equally clean original hardshell case.
Here's what EBMM has to say:
As with its 4 string counterpart, the Sterling 5 brings a big sound in a smaller more ergonomic design. Nine volt active 3 band EQ, 3 position pickup selector switch, and a ceramic humbucker with hum canceling phantom coil come standard, allowing the Sterling 5 to cut through any mix. An additional humbucker in the neck position is optional, adding even more tonal possibilities. Comfortable and compact, the Sterling 5 is well-suited for a wide range of players.
