Ernie Ball Music-Man Stingray Special HH - Frost Green Pearl! Bass Comes with Mono SoftShell Case!
The Ernie Ball Music Man StingRay Special HH in Frost Green Pearl takes the unmistakable StingRay formula and gives it considerably more tonal flexibility with a pair of powerful Music Man neodymium humbuckers and 5-way pickup switching. The result is a bass that can deliver the famous StingRay punch and attack while opening the door to a much broader range of sounds. The beautiful Frost Green Pearl finish, roasted maple neck and fingerboard, stainless-steel frets and chrome hardware give this particular StingRay Special a clean, distinctive appearance. At Northeast Music Center, we consider the HH configuration an excellent choice for the player who loves the StingRay but wants greater tonal versatility from a single instrument.

Two Humbuckers – A More Versatile StingRay
The StingRay's unmistakable voice has always started with its Music Man humbucker, and the StingRay Special HH doubles down with two neodymium humbuckers. A 5-way lever selector lets you access a wider palette of sounds while retaining the attack, clarity and authority that make a StingRay immediately recognizable. Music Man's 18-volt active preamp provides exceptional clean headroom, with Volume, Treble, Mid and Bass controls giving you direct control over the instrument's response. Whether you're looking for aggressive slap tones, articulate rock bass, warm supportive lows or something that sits neatly inside a dense mix, the HH configuration gives you plenty of room to work.
Modern StingRay Playability
The StingRay Special isn't simply a classic StingRay with different electronics. Music Man refined the instrument for better balance, comfort and playability. The select roasted maple neck and roasted maple fingerboard feature a comfortable 11" radius and 22 high-profile wide stainless-steel frets. The sculpted 5-bolt neck joint provides excellent access into the upper register, while lightweight Music Man tuning machines help reduce unnecessary weight at the headstock and improve the overall balance of the bass.
Frost Green Pearl
Frost Green Pearl is particularly striking on the StingRay. Depending on the light, the finish moves between a cool understated green and a more pronounced pearl appearance. Paired with the roasted maple neck, black pickguard and chrome hardware, it's distinctive without losing the classic visual identity of the StingRay.
The Northeast Music Center Difference
At Northeast Music Center, we appreciate the StingRay because it remains one of those instruments that has a genuine identity of its own. The HH version simply gives the player more ways to use that identity. This Frost Green Pearl StingRay Special HH combines American Music Man craftsmanship, dual neodymium pickups, powerful active electronics and excellent modern playability in a bass equally suited to the stage, studio or serious home player. This exact instrument is available now at Northeast Music Center and includes a Mono Case.
