Music Man StingRay 5 Bass, 5 String, Natural, Maple Neck, Second-Hand Overview by GAK.
The Music Man StingRay bass was first created in 1976 by Leo Fender and Tom Walker with some help from Sterling Ball who beta tested the model before it went into production. As used by top artists such as Louis Johnson, Guy Pratt and Flea it was no wonder that the StingRay became an instant classic with its highly innovative design and full, punchy sound which delivered night after night. The StingRay 5 possesses a select Ash body with a Maple neck to deliver a warm thick tone with melodic highs and commanding lows.
Good condition with Hiscox hard case, 2000 model.
