The StingRay Special is engineered with a 5-bolt sculpted neck joint, providing unparalleled stability and playability. The roasted maple neck and rosewood fretboard are treated with gunstock oil and a special wax blend for a smooth feel. This design ensures sustained note clarity and enhances the musician's performance with consistent quality across the entire fretboard.
Tonal versatility at your fingertips
