Introduced in 1976, the StingRay has stood the test of time, becoming recognized as one of the most renowned bass guitars ever. Featuring onboard active equalization, it was the first four-string bass available for mass production. The flagship of the Music Man line, the StingRay still maintains its signature features, such as a solid, road-worthy construction, iconic oval pickguard, and the prominent Music Man humbucker; timeless components that provide an unmistakable aesthetic and sound.
Crafted with modern updates while preserving the beloved traditional design, the StingRay bass is an ideal choice for sophisticated players.
