    Coolest. StingRay. Ever. Or what?!

    Imagine a black StingRay with black pickguard and matching headstock sporting these features:

    - Body: Mahogany
    - Neck: Maple with Ebony fretboard
    - String through body bridge


    Think I'm dreaming this up? Then check these offerings:

    Music Man Sting Ray 4-String 3-Bd EQ Ebony Neck Black

    NEU Music Man Stingray 3 Eq. strings thru body Ebenholz bei eBay.de: E-Bässe (endet 16.11.08 23:04:57 MEZ)





    Beth, if any of these are available in HH and/or fretless, I'd probably appreciate a dealer contact...

    Hey Beth, does anyone have a summary or something of the special runs that you guys have done for the overseas market?

    Like this one, those sometimes sneak under the radar on the forum and god knows we love to gossip about such things.

    And yes, ME LIKEY.

    PS: But The Coolest Stingray Ever is still the one Dudley did for BP - the "Biff Baby" Stingray.

    Coolest. StingRay. Ever. Or what?!-reallysweetbass-1.jpg


    any idea if ernie ball is planning on making some more of these?

    by the way - does anyone know why ernie ball doesn't make a SR with a translucent black finish? i always thought black was one of the most common colors.

    Mahogany. And according to the distributor they are available in Germany and Austria only. So... no overseas shipping

    I guess I'll have to do an extensive christmas shopping trip to Germany...
