Newbie Question: Stingray Differences

Newbie Question: Stingray Differences

It’s time for a new bass. I recently played a friend’s 2003 MusicMan Stingray 5H and loved it!
Now I’m looking for a 4 string Stingray for myself.
Can you please help me understand the different models? I’ve been studying everything I can find, but still have many questions.
For example, there’s Sterling SUB, Sterling, Sterling Classic, Sterling Ray 34, Sterling 4H, and 4HH. Then there’s the (non Sterling), Stingray, Classic, Special, 4H, 4HH and more.
I thought the SUB basses were entry level, Sterlings as Intermediate, and straight StingRays were the top, but I’ve seen some Sterlings selling amongst the highest priced StingRays.
I know this is a vague question, but rather than try every model, I was hoping for a little guidance.
Thanks!
