New Gear: Limited Edition Short Scale StingRay Bass 

Today, Ernie Ball Music Man is proud to introduce the latest addition to the coveted Short Scale StingRay bass lineup.

The 2022 Short Scale StingRay collection is limited to 125 instruments worldwide, exclusively from the Ernie Ball Music Man Vault.

The Ernie Ball Music Man Short Scale StingRay bass offers a big thumpy round sound in a convenient smaller package. A 30″ scale allows for easier playability due to the shorter spacing between the frets.

The Ernie Ball Music Man passive humbucking pickup, equipped with higher output neodymium magnets, has been specially designed for the short-scale bass, providing its signature warm tone.

The electronics package includes a 3-way rotary switch featuring parallel, true single-coil, and series modes. Like its big brother, the Stingray Special, the short-scale bass comes standard with a modern classic bridge, roasted maple neck, 22 stainless steel frets, and new lightweight Music Man tuning machines with a finer gear ratio.

These limited edition short-scale basses will come in five new color options with the choice of Ebony, Rosewood, or Maple fretboards, depending on the finish selected.
