Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
With two neodymium humbuckers and a five-way blade switch, the StingRay Special HH offers multiple pickup selections in a right-handed four-string format. The ash body and roasted maple C neck are paired with a 34-inch scale, 10-inch fingerboard radius and 22 stainless-steel frets. Its 18V active preamp has volume plus bass, mid and treble controls, so pickup selection and EQ can be adjusted from the bass. The sculpted five-bolt joint is designed to improve upper-fret access.
