Sterling is a brand that produces a lower-priced version of Music Man.
Even though it is a lower-priced version, it has high basic performance and inherits the characteristics of Music Man.
This model is the flagship model of Music Man, Stingray.
It is equipped with two large humbucking PUs, which is a bit unusual.
The neck is made of roasted maple.
This is also called thermo wood.
Thermowood, which was put to practical use in the field of musical instruments by Sago of Japan, was originally used in Finland as a building material for saunas.
It is also useful for musical instruments, as evidenced by the fact that leading manufacturers such as Sadowsky and Suhr use thermowood.
It is said that a certain amount of thermowood is disposed of due to its processing.
Probably, some of the instruments that will be warped in the future will be played here.
The sound has a strong impression of a mellow nuance.
The sound is characterized by a very wide range of sounds, based on the tight and aggressive sound typical of Stingray, combined with a good combination of PUs on the neck side.
The Stingray sound is difficult to get from any other style, and this model is the best choice if that is what you are looking for.
