Overview

Extended B-standard range with familiar StingRay feel.

Drop into B standard tuning without giving up the familiar feel of a six-string electric guitar. The Sterling by Music Man StingRay Baritone electric guitar uses a 27.5" scale to bring deeper low-end response to the StingRay platform, while its poplar body, roasted maple neck, rosewood fingerboard and 24 medium frets keep the playing experience grounded in familiar electric-guitar ergonomics. Two ceramic humbuckers feed a 3-way selector, master volume and master tone for a direct HH voice, while a hardtail bridge with vintage bent saddles and locking 4+2 tuners reinforce a stable, focused setup. Available exclusively at Guitar Center in Trans Walnut, this StingRay Baritone is built for heavy rhythm work, wide chord voicings, atmospheric textures and lower-register exploration.

27.5" Scale Opens a Deep B-Standard Range

The 27.5" scale places B-standard tuning across familiar six-string spacing, extending the instrument’s range without changing the basic technique, chord shapes or string count guitarists already know. The 12" radius rosewood fingerboard carries 24 medium frets, while the neck measures 1.65" at the nut and 2.24" at the last fret. Those dimensions keep the longer scale approachable for rhythm parts, wide voicings and lead lines that move above the body joint.

Dual Ceramic Humbuckers Provide a Direct HH Voice

Two ceramic humbuckers give the StingRay Baritone a broad platform for shaping lower-register parts, with a 3-way selector moving between bridge, both pickups and neck positions. Master volume and master tone keep the control scheme immediate, leaving pickup choice, pick attack and amplifier settings to do most of the tonal work. That simplicity suits a baritone that may need to move between defined clean textures, heavier rhythm sounds and saturated lead tones without adding unnecessary switching complexity.

Roasted Maple Neck Keeps the Extended Scale Familiar

A roasted maple neck joins the poplar body with a 5-bolt pattern, giving the longer-scale design a straightforward structural foundation. White pearloid block inlays mark the rosewood fingerboard across all 24 medium frets, while a dual-action truss rod provides adjustment range for setup changes. The result keeps the StingRay Baritone centered on familiar electric-guitar ergonomics even as the 27.5" scale and B-standard tuning push the instrument into a lower register.

Hardtail Hardware and Guitar Center Exclusive Trans Walnut Finish

A hardtail bridge with vintage bent saddles gives the StingRay Baritone a fixed foundation for its B-standard setup, while locking 4+2 tuning machines streamline string changes and support tuning stability through regular use. Nickel knurled control knobs and a nickel switch tip add functional appointments around the simple control layout, and Ernie Ball 2839 6-String Baritone Slinky strings establish the factory tuning and feel. Available exclusively at Guitar Center, the Trans Walnut poly finish gives the poplar body a distinctive presentation without changing the underlying performance-focused specification.

A Baritone StingRay for Stage, Studio and Sonic Exploration

Baritone range opens space for guitarists to build arrangements below standard tuning, whether the goal is denser rhythm parts, cinematic clean layers or alternative chord voicings. The StingRay Baritone keeps that expanded range tied to a familiar six-string platform with a 27.5" scale, 24 frets, ceramic HH pickups and a straightforward control layout, while the roasted maple neck, hardtail bridge and locking tuners support regular stage and studio use. For players ready to make lower registers part of their core sound, this Guitar Center Exclusive Sterling by Music Man StingRay Baritone offers a focused extension of the StingRay idea rather than a departure from it.
