Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
StingRay Special 5 H is a right-handed, solidbody five-string bass with an ash body, roasted maple C neck and a single bridge-position neodymium humbucker. Its 18V three-band active preamp puts bass, mid and treble control directly on the instrument. The 34-inch scale, 1.75-inch nut width, 10-inch fingerboard radius and 22 stainless-steel frets define the neck layout. A sculpted five-bolt neck joint is intended to support access higher on the fingerboard.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who need a five-string bass with a single bridge humbucker.
- Live or studio setups where onboard bass, mid and treble control is useful.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players specifically looking for a four-string bass.
- Left-handed players.
