Iconic StingRay tone. Five-string versatility. Classic looks.
The Sterling by Music Man StingRay Classic 5 brings the unmistakable character of the legendary StingRay to a modern 5-string platform. Finished in Olympic White with a classic tortoiseshell pickguard and maple fingerboard, this bass delivers serious vintage-inspired style with plenty of low-end authority.
The nyatoh body provides a balanced, resonant foundation, while the hard maple neck and fingerboard offer a smooth, comfortable playing experience. The 34" scale, 12" radius, and 21 medium frets give the Classic 5 a familiar feel that's equally at home on stage or in the studio.
At the heart of the bass is a powerful ceramic humbucker paired with a 9V-powered 2-band active preamp. With dedicated bass and treble controls, you can easily dial in everything from classic StingRay growl and punch to deep, modern low-end.
The five-string configuration adds an extra low B string for extended range, making the StingRay Classic 5 an excellent choice for rock, funk, country, R&B, pop, and modern music.
