Ernie Ball Music Man Short Scale StingRay - Tobacco Burst #K14727

The Ernie Ball Music Man StingRay Short Scale Bass brings the unmistakable StingRay experience to a more compact, comfortable 30" scale. Finished in Tobacco Burst, this bass pairs a high-gloss ash body with a select maple neck and a classic Music Man humbucking pickup, delivering a refined combination of timeless design, powerful tone, and effortless playability.

At the heart of the instrument is a single Music Man humbucking pickup with neodymium magnets, paired with a passive control layout and a 3-way rotary pickup selector. The vintage Music Man top-loaded bridge features chrome plating and vintage nickel-plated steel saddles, while the custom lightweight tuning machines provide smooth, reliable tuning stability.

The select maple neck is finished with Music Man’s gunstock oil and hand-rubbed special wax blend, offering a comfortable, natural feel. Its 30" scale length, 22 high-profile wide stainless steel frets, and sculpted five-bolt neck joint make it an especially appealing choice for players who prefer a shorter scale without sacrificing the character of a full-size StingRay.

This StingRay Short Scale Bass includes a padded softshell case and comes in at a comfortable 7 lbs. 10 oz. Whether you’re looking for a versatile studio instrument, a stage-ready bass, or a more compact take on a classic, this Tobacco Burst StingRay delivers the signature Music Man look and feel in a short-scale format.
