Ernie Ball Music Man Short Scale StingRay Tobacco Burst with Mono Case

First introduced in 1976, the StingRay has been revered as one of the most iconic bass guitars in history. The StingRay was the first production four string bass to feature onboard active equalization. The flagship of the Music Man line, today's StingRay retains the same signature features that it had some forty years ago.  In a twist, here we have something different: a short scale version.

The Ernie Ball Music Man Short Scale StingRay bass offers a big thumpy round sound in a convenient smaller package. A 30” scale allows for easier playability due to the shorter spacing between the frets.  It's light, easy to play, and a load of fun!

The Ernie Ball Music Man passive humbucking pickup, equipped with higher output neodymium magnets, has been specially designed for the short scale bass, providing its signature warm tone. The electronics package includes a 3-way rotary switch featuring parallel, true single-coil, and series modes. Like its big brother, the Stingray Special, the short scale bass comes standard with a modern classic bridge, 22 stainless steel frets, and lightweight Music Man tuning machines.

As an added bonus, Music Man basses now come with a custom Mono case, which not only is a great value in itself, but also provides the ability to protect your bass while in transport while not being heavy.
