Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Chopper Blue RAY4 combines a ceramic humbucker with a 9V active preamp, volume control, and 2-band EQ for hands-on control of its bass sound. The maple fingerboard, open-gear tuners, and fully adjustable bridge make the instrument’s core playing setup straightforward to dial in. Individual saddles allow adjustments to intonation and string height, so the bass can be set up around the player’s preferred action. It is a right-handed, four-string StingRay-shaped solidbody bass with a white pickguard.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Home practice and stage performance where active volume and EQ controls support hands-on sound adjustment.
- Players who want to set intonation and string height individually at the bridge.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; this is a right-handed bass.
- Players needing a case or gig bag supplied with the bass; it is sold separately.
