This is the bass you are asking about, the 5EG? Totally different than the 5N model. The same number should be stamped into the end of the Fingerboard as written on the label. Please show some pictures of it to make sure.

hi, yes it has the same number on the fingerboard, i tried to upload some pictures but wouldn't let me , will try again later with a different format, i was told by the seller it was 5n he obviously doasn't know much about them and i am new to them also, i take it the 5EG is a better model

regards
