Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around two neodymium humbuckers, the right-handed StingRay Special 5 HH offers five-string range with a five-way selector and an 18-volt active three-band EQ. Volume, bass, mid, and treble controls put the main adjustments directly on the instrument. Its contoured lightweight body and roasted maple neck are paired with a 22-fret fingerboard, so it is set up for extended playing and access across the neck. A hardshell case is included for transport.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rehearsals or studio sessions needing different pickup selections and onboard bass, mid, and treble adjustment.
- Players who need a right-handed five-string bass with two humbuckers and active EQ controls.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players seeking a four-string bass; this is a five-string model.
- Left-handed players; the instrument is right handed.
