Music Man StingRay Special MN (Ivory White)

The StingRay Special MN (Ivory White) is a very comfortable and versatile instrument with the typical StingRay characteristics, thanks to careful revision of body design and electronics. Music Man sources an Ash body and a bolt-on Roasted Maple neck that carries a Maple fingerboard with 22x stainless steel frets. A powerful Music Man standard neodymium humbucker pick-up and an active 3-band tone control with 18V operating voltage also provide versatile and dynamic Bass sounds. The StingRay Special offers weight-saving Music Man Custom Lightweight tuners and a Vintage Top Load bridge.

Music Man uses a traditional choice of wood for the construction of the StingRay Special: an Ash body, which ensures a defined attack, regardless of playing style and deep harmonic content through all 5x strings, while the neck is made of stable roasted Maple and carries a Maple fingerboard. Held to the body via 5x bolts, maximum resonance is achieved through both component pieces, whilst the ability to make adjustments throughout the life of the instrument is retained.

The re-worked body contours, which allow the Bass to rest comfortably against the body, and the Sculpted Neck Joint, which in combination with the comfortable “C” neck profile makes all 22x stainless steel frets easily accessible, also ensure a high level of playing comfort.

Equipped with one Music Man Standard Neodymium Humbucker pick-up, the StingRay Special proves to be a true contender to the throne. When these high-quality, dynamic, pick-ups are combined with the 18V 3-band tone control, and 5-way selector, any range of tones and vibes can be brought forth.

Music Man have outfitted the StingRay Special with high-quality hardware that has been optimally tuned to the 4-string instrument; the solid steel Music Man Vintage Top Load bridge is used on the body, alongside 4x Music Man Custom Lightweight tuners in the classic "3+1" layout on the headstock.
