STERLING BY MUSIC MAN Stingray In Mint Green

The essentials to know about the Sterling Stingray RAY4 Mint Green bass

• Accessible StingRay spirit: the iconic look and typical "punchy" attack in a 4-string bass with remarkable value for money.


• 2-band active electronics: simple and effective controls (Volume + EQ) to quickly shape your sound both in rehearsal and on stage.


• Ceramic humbucker pickup: a powerful, precise, and modern tone, ideal for cutting through the mix.


• Immediate comfort: maple neck, maple fingerboard, and narrow nut that promote playability and speed.

A direct descendant of the legendary StingRay

Inspired by the famous Music Man StingRay, which became iconic by the late 1970s, the Sterling Stingray RAY4 retains the fundamentals that have defined generations of bassists: a clean and instantly recognizable design, robust hardware, and a humbucker pickup with a strong character. Available in several finishes, this Mint Green version adds a chic vintage touch to an instrument built for the stage.

Who is the RAY4 for?

The RAY4 is perfect for beginners who want to start on a reliable and inspiring bass, while remaining solid and expressive enough to satisfy intermediate to advanced bassists seeking a versatile instrument. Its energetic temperament excels in rock, funk, pop, metal, and gospel: wherever the bass needs to be present, percussive, and well-defined.

The sound

The core of the sound comes from the Sterling ceramic humbucker placed at the bridge: it delivers a clear attack, tight lows, and mids that stand out easily, with excellent clarity both with a pick and fingerstyle. The active electronics with 2-band EQ allow quick tonal balance adjustments: more roundness and fullness for deep lines, or more bite to cut through the mix. The basswood body contributes to a balanced and even response, while the maple neck/fingerboard combo promotes brightness and precision, for a typical StingRay "punchy" output.
