The DarkRay 4-string electric bass from Ernie Ball Music Man, designed with acclaimed bass accessory manufacturer Darkglass Electronics, yields a vast palette of sounds. At its core, the bass has a modern 2-band EQ preamp with three modes: Clean, Alpha (tight distortion), and Omega (fuzz). Control the distortion via the Gain knob and Blend control, allowing for an array of tones from clean to full fuzz with no low-end frequency reduction. The bass also boasts an LED ring and 3-way lever to display the current mode, a neodymium humbucking pickup, roasted maple neck, ergonomic body, 22 stainless steel frets, matte black hardware, and a classic 3+1 headstock design.
