Player's Perspective

Music Store Live is thrilled to offer up our most recent Music Man Exclusive Run of instruments. This run of special StingRay basses started arriving in late 2021 and into 2022. They are absolutely jaw-droppingly awesome! The feel is incredible from top to bottom and we really dig the way they look, too. Lots of people have StingRays, but you're not likely to run into another one quite like this!

The neck feels amazing with a satiny smooth, gun oil finish which makes for a comfortable feel and a fast ride all the way up and down. The tone is absolutely thunderous and has all of that StingRay goodness that we know and love. This is one of those instruments that's put together well enough to let you feel every little vibration of every note you play. You don't even need to plug it in to feel its power... But, of course, once you do, you'll truly unleash the beast! The layout is easy to work with yet provides a wide variety of exceptional tones with a 3-band boost/cut preamp. This axe will make a killer companion on the road and in the studio. This is a StingRay who's voice is designed for today's music and the needs of today's musicians.

As one of Ernie Ball's Premier Dealers, Music Store Live had the privilege of going up to the Ernie Ball factory and hand-selecting every aspect of this instrument. The configuration emphasizes all of the amazing qualities of the StingRay for a bass that just sounds and feels unbelievable. The 18V preamp has all of the headroom you could possibly ever need. The neodymium magnets on the new pickups provide some solid punch and higher output than the old alnico ones. It's all about giving you control and sonic power right at your fingertips. Not to mention, you'll never run into somebody else with the same StingRay as you with this unique configuration we've cooked up.

Manufacturer's Description

First introduced in 1976, the StingRay has been revered as one of the most iconic bass guitars in history. The StingRay was the first production four string bass to feature on-board active equalization. The flagship of the Music Man line, today's StingRay is the same as it was some forty years ago featuring a solid roadworthy construction, massive hardened steel bridge, elegant oval pickguard, 3+1 tuning key configuration, and the ever-popular Music Man humbucker. All of which combined produce a look, feel and sound that are remarkably unmistakable.

REIMAGINED - REBUILT FROM THE GROUND UP
Optimized, modernized, yet so familiar, the new StingRay bass is tailor-made for today’s most discerning players.

5-BOLT SCULPTED NECK JOINT
The sculpted neck joint provides uninhibited access to all 22 stainless steel frets atop roasted maple necks.

REFINED BODY CONTOURS
Enhanced body contours are rounded for more comfort in any playing position while retaining that revered, iconic StingRay sound.

REVOICED - POWERFUL NEODYMIUM PICKUPS
The new and improved StingRay electronics feature powerful neodymium magnets, bringing you more output and a wider range of sounds.

NEW 18-VOLT PREAMP
A newly designed 18-volt 3-Band preamp for extra clean headroom lets you dial in everything from modern punch to classic, vintage tones.

REBORN - LIGHTWEIGHT PERFORMANCE
Weighing in at an average of only eight and a half pounds, the StingRay is lighter than ever but still packs its signature punch.

RE-ENGINEERED HARDWARE
Re-engineered lightweight tuning machines create a more balanced neck while still providing ultra-reliable tuning stability.

  - Custom Trans Amber Finish
  - Hand-Selected Lightweight Swamp Ash Body
