Best sounding Music Man guitar I've heard.

[XanderYTV]

I have this guitar. It's just absolutely fantastic. I've never felt something like this in this price range

[bonwana]

I also have one of these. Definately a keeper. One of the best necks I've played and the tremolo system is dynamite!! I went away for 3 months while it was stored in its rock solid case and when i came back and played it, it was 100% in tune. The Machine head, tuners and nut are a work of art. Everything about this guitar is Deluxe. The pickups are hot humbuckers. Even the pick gaurd is 4 ply Tortoise shell. Get one if you can.

[Gitfiddle]

It's a killer axe. The pickups are pure vintage and the playability it's flawless. It's a real beauty.

Thays the best looking sting ray ive ever seen man beautiful I usually dont like them but this one is nice crazy what different top can do with a burst

[dennisp]

A fine fine guitar. It's a keeper. Was able to float the Trem very nicely. Although I use it very subtly. Guitar goes in tune & STAYS in tune. Great size & weight. It is just one of the all around finest playing & sounding Humbucker guitars I have ever played ( & that is a LOT of them). My search is over.
I've also got the the definitive Single coil/Strat- like guitar - John Page Ashburn. And now the definitive Humbucker guitar. Nothing else required. Sold all the rest.

I have a stingray RS that looks exactly like the one in this video, except it has a roasted neck. It's a masterpiece. I think about it when I'm away from it.

[barteescox]

I am buying the fuck out of this guitar. Goddamn I haven't been this pumped for a guitar in years. So glad that I'm not evaluating another Fender/Gibson again. I really hate how much I have to depend on those companies to do something I like. Would have linked to just have a bone nut on this guitar, but compensators aint bad.

[GeeMorno]

Would put money that Kurt Cobain would have owned one of these...

[williammarthe]

Thanks Ernie Ball ! I have a Music Man Silhouette best Guitar I ever played ....with that being said I'm 6 foot 3 and 240 pounds and it looks like a toy on me when I play it live because it's a smaller guitar . I've been waiting for over 6 years for a larger Music Man and here it is...it will be mine..

[themadlooper]

What’s the song he’s playing?! I know I’ve heard it but I just can’t think of the name of the song

[localtrust]

who's the player in these videos? I like his style

[dadorage]

The guitar looks pretty great i'm not gonna lie

[andriebayuajie]

Is the neck feels similiar to the cutlass?

[mikebledsoe]

I tried to like a Gibson SG but I wasn't feeling it. When I became aware of the StingRay I had to have it but I got one concern will the buffered input play havoc with my Wren and Cuff 70's silicon fuzz? I thought the buffered input was only in the Cutlass. Ernie Ball I need a honest answer to my concerns. Also what's the street price for this guitar?

[waynechurchill]

Sou d like Jazzmaster little dirty that portly set up

[scootmcgoot]

how does the tremolo hold up? I need a workhorse guitar where the trem works without wonking out of tune. I hate floyds

[stephendringus]

Well...we know what the od pedal sounds like

[scookie]

Played one, really liked the guitar. For my taste PAF style buckers may be not the best for this guitar. And in Europe its 2000€, way overpriced.

[javiceres]

Nice alternative to the ugly super strats. We finally get past the 80s worse byproducts
