Ernie Ball Music Man Tim Commerford Artist Series StingRay - Active 2025 - Caliper Red

The Tim Commerford Artist Series StingRay Bass was created through a close collaboration with the legendary bassist Tim Commerford of Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave, and 7D7D, blending Ernie Ball Music Man’s craftsmanship with Tim’s performance-focused design preferences. It features a resonant ash body, a roasted maple neck, and an ebony fretboard, producing a bold and balanced tone. The active model, finished in Caliper Red, includes a powerful neodymium humbucker, an 18-volt preamp, and a 3-band EQ for aggressive tonal shaping, while the passive version, available in Fight Night White, offers a raw punch and dynamic feel. Both versions come equipped with Tim’s custom height-adjustable finger ramp, a string-through-body bridge with red mute pads, and black hardware, giving the bass a sleek, road-ready look. This model is now part of the full Music Man lineup.
