Features We Love:

Roasted Maple Neck

With a roasted maple neck you still get that classic snap of maple but with a few more benefits. This maple has been dried in a kiln to very specific temperatures that reduce the moisture content in the wood. This results in a more stable wood that is less susceptible to movement in changing climates. This keeps your bass playing its best for longer and is a great feature for touring players. The roasting process also gives the a lovely caramel colour!

StingRay Humbuckers

It wouldn't be a StingRay without those classic open-coil humbuckers. Designed with alnico magnets to retain warmth, these pickups can easily belt out a thick tone. To add on this bass has a 5-way toggle and a 3 band active preamp making it super versatile!

Modern Looks

It's hard to update a classic design, but Sterling has nailed it with this one. Tastefully finished with an Amber over Poplar Burl this bass will fit right into any setting. Stunning up close and understated when it needs to be.
