Classic StingRay attitude. Vintage-inspired feel. Modern performance.
The Sterling by Music Man StingRay Classic brings the legendary look, feel, and unmistakable punch of the original '70s StingRay bass to today's players. Finished in stunning Toluca Lake Blue with a tortoiseshell pickguard, this bass delivers serious vintage style with the performance and reliability you expect from Sterling by Music Man.
The flat-slab mahogany body provides a warm, resonant foundation with plenty of midrange character, while the hard maple neck and rosewood fingerboard offer a smooth, comfortable playing experience. The 34" scale and slightly narrower 38mm nut width give the StingRay Classic a familiar full-scale feel while making the neck especially comfortable for players who prefer a slimmer nut.
At the heart of the StingRay Classic is a powerful ceramic humbucker paired with a 9V-powered 2-band active preamp. The result is the thick, punchy, aggressive StingRay tone bassists have loved for generations, with plenty of headroom and simple onboard EQ control to shape your sound.
Whether you're laying down funk grooves, rock-solid rock lines, country bass parts, or modern pop tracks, the StingRay Classic is a versatile workhorse with unmistakable character.
