Sterling By Music Man Session StingRay 5 Natural

Music Man Session StingRay 5 Natural
The Session StingRay 5 Ash Natural represents the top tier of the Sterling by Music Man lineup and builds on the legacy of the iconic StingRay basses from the 1990s and 2000s. With an ash body, carefully selected components, and classic StingRay character, it offers an instrument that feels just as at home in the studio as it does on stage.

The roasted maple neck with an oil-and-wax finish provides a natural playing feel with a smooth, well-broken-in response right from the first note. The combination of a compensated nut, Music Man Schaller tuning machines, and a 6-screw neck joint contributes to stable tuning and improved intonation.

The specially designed Music Man Session humbucker delivers the powerful attack, rich low end, and clear articulation that have made the StingRay the top choice for generations of bassists. The active 3-band EQ system, combined with the 3-way pickup selector, offers extensive possibilities for shaping the sound, from deep and solid bass registers to clearly defined treble tones. The five-string design also expands the instrument’s range with a low B string for even greater musical flexibility.
