The StingRay's Smaller, But No-Less Powerful Sibling
The Music Man Sterling was originally released in the early 1990s to offer bass players the same kind of sound produced by the popular StingRay5, but in a compact 4-string format.
Not to be confused with the budget friendly Sterling by Music Man instruments, the Music Man Sterling is an American-made high-quality bass in its own right.
Lightweight Design
Despite resembling the more famous StingRay4 at first glance, the Music Man Sterling is lighter, relatively smaller, has a slimmer neck, and a different electronics system - utilising ceramic magnet pickups instead of alnico.
The end result is a dynamic, high-performance bass, with an incredible tone that can cut through pretty much any mix with ease.
Top Notch Electronics
Inspired by the electronics system on the hugely-popular StingRay5, the Music Man Sterling Bass features a single Ceramic humbucker and a 3-way coil selector switch.
This switch is designed to offer three different coil setup modes: parallel, single coil, and series - giving you plenty of tonal options at your disposal.
In addition to this, the humbucker hides a little secret stashed out of sight: a "phantom coil". This extra coil's sole purpose is to eliminate any unwanted hum, whatever Coil selection you choose.
