Music Man StingRay Special HH Bass, Smoked Chrome, Special Order Overview
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 onboard 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, elegant oval pickguard, 3+1 tuning key configuration, and the ever-popular Music Man humbucker – all of which combine to produce a look, feel, and sound that is remarkably unmistakable.
