Music Man was Leo Fender's second brand and was beloved by bassists worldwide.
Even after being acquired by Ernie Ball, this continued to be the case, and the brand is widely accepted by modern bassists.
Many artists, including Louis Johnson and Flea, are known to use Music Man basses. (Titles omitted)
The Stingray is the brand's most popular staple model.
It's no exaggeration to say that, alongside Fender's Jazz Bass and Precision Bass, it's one of the most popular basses in the world.
This appears to be a special model made to order in-store.
As you can see, the color scheme isn't listed in the catalog.
It also has several modifications.
The body is alder, and the fingerboard appears to be rosewood.
It features a manly design with a single humbucking pickup.
The pickups have been replaced with Bartolini MMEs, and the preamp has been replaced with a Seymour Duncan STC-3M4.
Both were designed specifically for the StingRay, so they are a perfect match.
The sound is warm and powerful.
Compared to the original electrical system, it has an appealing warmth in the mid-range and a wider range.
It's a one-of-a-kind sound that can only be produced with this style.
We encourage you to experience it for yourself.
Approximately 90% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck is in good condition.
There are minor scratches and dents on the body and paint.
The electrical system is in good condition.
The pickups have been replaced with BARTOLINI MMEs, and the preamp with a SEYMOUR DUNCAN / STC-3M4.
The strap pins have also been replaced with Schaller types, and the battery box type has been changed to a snap type.
