As the first production bass to feature onboard active equalization, the StingRay set a new standard for versatility, power, and tonal clarity. Combining its unmistakable look with an upgraded lightweight design, refined electronics, and premium hardware, today's StingRay Special retains the same roadworthy reliability, punchy tone, and signature playability that has made it a staple among bassists for nearly five decades.</p> <h3>Classic Construction with a Modern Feel</h3> <p>Built for comfort and durability, the StingRay Special features a solid select body for rich resonance and sustain. Its sculpted contours and rounded edges offer a smoother playing experience, while the iconic oval pickguard and 3+1 tuning key configuration maintain the unmistakable aesthetic that bassists have loved for years. The roasted maple neck provides enhanced stability, smooth playability, and an ultra-responsive feel.</p> <h3>Powerful Music Man Humbucker with Active Electronics</h3> <p>The StingRay Special H is equipped with an upgraded neodymium humbucking pickup that delivers the powerful low end and aggressive bite that made the original famous. Paired with an 18V active preamp, this bass offers an expanded dynamic range, allowing players to shape their tone with precision. The three-band EQ provides deep lows, growling mids, and crisp highs, ensuring the StingRay Special is suited for any genre or playing style.</p> <h3>Refined Hardware for Enhanced Performance</h3> <p>The Music Man hardened steel bridge enhances resonance and sustain while providing solid intonation and tuning stability. The lightweight aluminum hardware, including custom Music Man tuners, helps reduce overall weight without sacrificing durability. Combined with the smooth-action truss rod wheel adjustment, the StingRay Special H offers players the ultimate in reliability and ease of setup.</p> <h3>A Bass That Stands the Test of Time</h3> <p>With its iconic look, unmatched playability, and legendary tone, the Ernie Ball Music Man StingRay Special H continues to be the go-to bass for professionals worldwide. Whether you're holding down the groove in the studio or delivering thunderous lows on stage, this bass delivers the punch, clarity, and versatility that have defined it for generations.</p>", "value":"2,749.00", "priceMin":"2,749.00", "priceMax":"2,949.00", "priceSavingsMaxPrice":"0.00", "priceSavingsMaxPercent":"0", "inventory":"16", "brand":"Ernie Ball Music Man", "reviewStarImageUrl": "https://static.musiciansfriend.com/img/brand/mf/cmn/Sprit-Sm-Stars.png", "reviewStarRating":"5.0", "reviewStarRatingInteger":"10", "reviewHowManyReviews":"1", "usedOrNew":"new", "discontinued":"0", "onOrder":"0", "clearance":"0", "canBeSold":"1", "accessoryCategories":"site1HBAL,site1LFML,site1LROBB", "stickerText": ""}

Overview

A modern evolution of a legendary bass.

First introduced in 1976, the Ernie Ball Music Man StingRay Special H 4-string bass has stood the test of time as one of the most iconic and influential bass guitars ever made. As the first production bass to feature onboard active equalization, the StingRay set a new standard for versatility, power, and tonal clarity. Combining its unmistakable look with an upgraded lightweight design, refined electronics, and premium hardware, today's StingRay Special retains the same roadworthy reliability, punchy tone, and signature playability that has made it a staple among bassists for nearly five decades.

Classic Construction with a Modern Feel

Built for comfort and durability, the StingRay Special features a solid select body for rich resonance and sustain. Its sculpted contours and rounded edges offer a smoother playing experience, while the iconic oval pickguard and 3+1 tuning key configuration maintain the unmistakable aesthetic that bassists have loved for years. The roasted maple neck provides enhanced stability, smooth playability, and an ultra-responsive feel.

Powerful Music Man Humbucker with Active Electronics

The StingRay Special H is equipped with an upgraded neodymium humbucking pickup that delivers the powerful low end and aggressive bite that made the original famous. Paired with an 18V active preamp, this bass offers an expanded dynamic range, allowing players to shape their tone with precision. The three-band EQ provides deep lows, growling mids, and crisp highs, ensuring the StingRay Special is suited for any genre or playing style.

Refined Hardware for Enhanced Performance

The Music Man hardened steel bridge enhances resonance and sustain while providing solid intonation and tuning stability. The lightweight aluminum hardware, including custom Music Man tuners, helps reduce overall weight without sacrificing durability. Combined with the smooth-action truss rod wheel adjustment, the StingRay Special H offers players the ultimate in reliability and ease of setup.
