Sterling Ray5 - Mint Green, Maple Fingerboard

Super-affordable StingRay-style 5-string
The Sterling by Music Man Ray5 5-string electric bass brings you the look, sound, and playability of the original Music Man StingRay line. For starters, the Ray5 gives you the comfortable feel of a contoured hardwood body and a smooth maple neck, a tonewood combo that serves up a delightful range of complex harmonics. On top of that, you get a high-output humbucking pickup and 2-band active EQ - the same electronics that provide StingRay basses with such tonal versatility. In fact, the only shocking surprise about the Sterling Ray5 is how inexpensive it is.




The legendary tone of a StingRay
From the very first time you plug in your Ray5, you'll appreciate the phenomenal low-end punch its single Music-Man humbucking pickup delivers. The extra-stout pole pieces and wide windings provided by this alnico pickup contribute a solid foundation for your tone, and the bass's active preamp and 2-band EQ really let you sculpt your sound. As a result, everyone from metal master Rex Brown to funk legend Louis Johnson have enjoyed the extreme punch this amazing electronics package has to offer.




Iconic StringRay bass playability and style
One look at the Sterling by Music Man Ray5 5-string and you know you're in for a treat. The bassists here at Sweetwater are thumbs-up on this cool, value-packed instrument. Its contoured hardwood body and smooth-playing neck are more than worthy of the StingRay line and make this instrument incredibly fun to play. If you're after the look and the feel of an original StringRay for a lot less, the Ray5 is your deal.




Quality any player can afford
Sterling by Music Man brings you the the quality you expect in a Music Man bass at an musician-friendly price. Sterling offers authentic and accurate versions of many of the Music Man guitar and bass models including the Axis, John Petrucci signature models, StingRay, and more. Music Man's head luthier Dudley Gimpel worked to ensure that these instruments are as close to the originals as possible. You'll be amazed at the value, tone, and playability of Sterling by Music Man.
