Originally introduced in 1987 by Ernie Ball Music Man, the StingRay 5 quickly became the go-to choice for extended range basses and has maintained its industry standard status. With its dynamic and robust tone, extra pickups for versatility, and a smooth and ergonomic body design, the StingRay 5 caters to the needs of even the most discerning musicians.

Rock/funk/punk/country/motown/reggae/metal players all have made use of a StingRay, and for anyone needing that low B, it just doesn't get better than this.  Dual humbuckers and a 3-band EQ powered by an 18-volt active preamp give you the solid foundation and ability to dial in the exact sound you want, no matter the style.  Power, punch and precision - that's what the StingRay Special 5 HH provides.
