The Sterling by Music Man StingRay RAY34PB supplies an iconic bass tone with an added dose of visual appeal. What sets this bass apart from other RAY34 models is its attractive poplar burl top and nyatoh body. Players will appreciate the comfortably contoured nyatoh body with a curved armrest and belly cut. The body is bolted to an easy-playing roasted maple neck with 21 frets to explore. From there, Sterling loads in a Music Man-designed alnico humbucking pickup for a deep, powerful tone that punches through the mix. The StingRay RAY34PB also comes equipped with a 9-volt active preamp with a 3-band EQ for tone shaping. Whether you’re looking for a new touring axe, or a dependable companion for the studio, the Sterling by Music Man StingRay RAY34PB is an excellent choice.
Music Man-designed pickup and onboard EQ
- The StingRay RAY34PB’s body is loaded with a single alnico humbucker. Designed by the bass experts at Music Man, this pickup certainly delivers all the thump and growl you want. It also has an alnico magnet for a vintage-tinged tone. An active 9-volt preamp and a built-in EQ are also onboard. As you’re playing, use the master volume and the 3-band EQ to sculpt your tone before it hits your pedalboard and amp.
Fluid playability up and down the neck
- Ask Sweetwater bassists and they'll tell you that one of their favorite things about the StingRay RAY34PB is its roasted maple neck. Roasting is a process that entails wood being seasoned with high temperatures to release excess moisture, meaning the neck physically weighs less. For the player, this means you experience far less neck dive than you would compared to a standard maple neck. Beyond that, roasted maple is extremely stable and resistant to warping caused by temperature and humidity. With the RAY34PB’s roasted maple neck, you’ll enjoy smooth, dependable playability — no matter where you’re traveling.
