Here for sale we have an Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray Special Electric Bass in Charcoal Sparkle finish. Made in the USA in 2018, this bass consists of a Select Hardwood body, a Roasted Maple neck, and a 22-fret Ebony fingerboard. Other appointments include Matte Black hardware, a Vintage Music Man top loaded bridge, Custom Music Man tuners, and two Humbucking pickups with Neodymium Magnets. The pickups are wired to a 5-way pickup selector, 3-band active preamp including volume, treble, mid and bass.
The Roasted Maple neck plays very well, with a profile that might be described as a moderately-sized 'C' shape which sits comfortably in the hand and provides a smooth and responsive playing experience across the register. The 11” radius Roasted Maple fingerboard provides a smooth and comfortable playing surface, along with the 1.7” nut width which allows for different techniques such as slap bass or chordal playing. The satin finish to the rear assists with slick navigation of the 34" scale, and along with the generous cutaways ensures that access to the upper frets is a breeze.
Since their introduction in 1976, StingRay basses have been sought after by players for their distinctive tonal character. There is a deep and rich low end growl, with punchy mids and a snappy treble response which blends perfectly into a wide range of musical settings; filling out the low end of the mix and capturing all the attack and sparkle of your playing. The on-board active preamp offers comprehensive control of your sound, with 3-band EQ and master volume controls which allow you to dial in your perfect tone right on the instrument.
