Designed for players who demand powerful tone, professional playability, and iconic style, this Ernie Ball Music Man StingRay HH Special Bass in Faded Vintage Sunburst stands as a modern refinement of a legendary instrument. Introduced in 1976, the StingRay was the first production bass to feature onboard active EQ, and it remains one of the most recognizable and revered bass guitars in history. This HH Special version elevates that legacy with dual neodymium-powered humbuckers, a five-way pickup selector, and an 18-volt active preamp system delivering unmatched headroom and tonal versatility.

The body is crafted from select hardwoods and finished in high-gloss polyester, while the neck is roasted maple paired with a sleek ebony fretboard — both contributing to stability, punchy response, and visual richness. With 22 stainless steel frets, custom lightweight tuners, a sculpted five-bolt neck joint, and a vintage-style bridge, the StingRay Special offers road-ready reliability and effortless access to higher frets. Whether you're holding down the groove or exploring expressive dynamics, this bass delivers classic StingRay punch with modern versatility. Available now at Haggerty’s Music; includes MONO soft-shell case.
