Ernie Ball Music Man BFR StingRay 5 Fretless – Fuego/#57 of 105
The Ball family is the last of a dying breed, a family business making premium guitars and basses on the California central coast since 1984. Sterling Ball, alongside his sons Brian and Scott, combine the laser precision of robotics and old-world hand craftsmanship to develop innovative instrument designs that push the boundaries of performance and playability.
The Ernie Ball Music Man BFR StingRay5 Special Fuego fretless 5-string bass guitar is part of a highly limited run consisting of only 105 total pieces. It features a stunning translucent cherry/yellow Sunburst finish without a pickguard, showcasing the nicely figured ash body. The highly figured roasted maple neck with flame-roasted fretless fingerboard completes the elegant upscale appearance. The BFR StingRay5 Special Fuego’s humbucking pickup with neodymium magnets and recently upgraded 3-band EQ, help it deliver all of the familiar StingRay5’s punch and growl. Each bass features gold hardware and ships with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
