Ernie Ball Music Man introduce a new line called the Modern Classic Collection and a new guitar model for 2016 – the Stingray. Technically a reissue of the Music Man Stingray I originally designed by Leo Fender in 1976. The new Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray carries on the same body shape but has significant updates & improvements for the modern player…
The StingRay guitar features updated vintage spec humbucking pickups, a super smooth modern tremolo system and off-set lightweight African Mahogany body. The sound is big and bold when needed but smooth as glass if desired thanks to the perfectly voiced custom pickups. 3-way switch accesses versatile coil combinations while oversized 4 over 2 headstock with straight string pull provide superior tuning stability. Flawless craftsmanship throughout make the Stingray a perfect culmination of old world aesthetics and styling with modern design and playability.
