After Leo Fender sold his company Fender to CBS, he founded MusicMan in 1972. The StingRay, which was developed in 1975, was something like a perfected modern version of the legendary Precision bass and was enthusiastically accepted by the bassists. A humbucker with active 3-band tone control and the 3/1 arrangement of the mechanics (to avoid deadspots) were revolutionary. Due to the high quality of the wood, the processing and the flexible sound control, the basses are universally applicable. Famous StingRay users are e. g. Cliff Williams (AC/DC) Tony Levin (Peter Gabriel), John Deacon (Queen), Flea (Red Hot Chilli Peppers)...
Music Man has its own custom shop principle. So almost everything is possible if you bring the necessary patience and accept approx. 6 months of waiting time, if the object of desire with the corresponding features is neither in store, nor in stock with the distributor.

Since its introduction in 1976 the Music Man StingRay range has established itself as a fixture in the world of bass guitars. Little wonder: the "StingRays" were among the first active basses ever and thus enabled unprecedented tonal flexibility. The basses were designed by Mr Leo Fender personally, who co‑founded Music Man in the early 1970s after selling his company Fender to CBS. To this day the StingRays are regarded as genuine all‑rounders, offering great sound and fantastic build quality. For several years there has also been the variant called Sterling by Music Man alongside the Music Man basses made in USA, providing a more affordable entry into the world of StingRays. Legendary bassists such as Flea, Tim Commerford and John Deacon certainly didn't choose Music Man by chance.
