PRS SE Bass - 5 string?

[rnodern]

Hi there,

I'm looking to try a PRS Bass, a Kestrel or a Kingfisher. However i want a 5 string. Searching around, it looks like they don't make a 5 string unless you get into private stock territory.

Do they exist? I feel like that's a pretty big market segment they're missing out on if so.

Cheers

There is a core Gary Grainger 5 String Bass available so you don't have to go all the way to private stock. But the core is still a lot more expensive than the SE Kestrel or Kingfisher models.
