A 1999 USA-made StingRay 3EQ H in the rare "Black Sparkle" finish.
The Music Man StingRay enjoys immense popularity as a classic active bass model. Its appeal lies in the powerful, focused sound produced by its distinctive humbucking pickups and the wide range of tone-shaping capabilities offered by its 3-band active EQ.
The body is made of ash, the neck of maple, and the fingerboard of rosewood. It features the rich low end, clear attack, and prominent midrange characteristic of the StingRay, making it versatile across a wide range of genres from rock to funk and slap bass.
The gBlack Sparkleh finish, with its fine glitter that shimmers differently from standard black, is a major highlight. This striking instrument lets you enjoy the exceptional playability and sound unique to a USA-made StingRay.
Due to wear, the middle pot is in a condition where the center click is barely noticeable.
There is paint cracking on the back of the body, with some slight paint lifting and a small chip in the surrounding area.
There is slight paint lifting around the pickguard.
The metal hardware shows some tarnish. Additionally, there are some minor scratches and dents.
There are no noticeable issues with the neck, and it is in good playing condition.
