With the Music Man StingRay5 Special HH, seen here with a stunning Smoked Chrome finish, you get a modern, high-performance take on the Industry Standard 5-string bass.

Redfined to meet the demands of the modern player, the StingRay5 Special HH manages to deliver the same unbeatable tone and legendary look as its forebear, but with an even more comfortable shape, and increased power.

Music Man StingRay5 Special HH 5-String Bass, Smoked Chrome Key Features

  • Modern Take On The Industry-Standard 5-String - for decades the StingRay5 has been the goto bass of choice for countless studio artists and live performers. Now with the StingRay 5 Special the design has been refined for the modern player, offering a more comfortable and lightweight playing experience than ever before
  • Slick Playability - in addition to a slimmer, more-contoured body than ever, the StingRay Special is equipped with a select Roasted Maple neck and - in this case - Ebony fingerboard, both of which are designed to offer a super-smooth playing experience, whatever your playstyle.
  • Powerful Electronics - in place of the more traditional Alnico magnet humbuckers, Music Man have opted for Neodymium magnets in their StingRay Special HH lineup, which has a much stronger magnetic pull than Alnico for a much more articulate sound. Not only that, but the pickups are complimented by an 18v active preamp and 5-way selector switch, to deliver a versatile array of the most powerful StingRay sounds ever
  • Reliable Hardware - delivering an ultra-secure playing experience, whilst at the same time being designed to compliment the StingRay Special's lightweight design, you'll find an all-new set of tuning machines with tapered posts. At the other end of the bass there is a vintage Music Man top-loaded streel bridge plate, which works to maximise string vibrational transference and natural sustain
  • Hardshell Case Included - to keep the bass safe when not in use, or when you're travelling to and from performances, Music Man have included a fitted hardshell case. This case boasts a rugged outer shell, with a plush-lined interior, and compartments for accessories - such as spare strings, cables, and straps
