zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Dial in Darkglass-powered tones with this modern classic bass! Ernie Ball Music Man's DarkRay bass offers Darkglass electronics and effects onboard.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Roasted maple neck Bright tone, full sustain and strength
Ebony fretboard Dark color, tight grain; premium fretboard wood
Darkglass active tone circuit Custom-voiced for versatile, pure tone
Bolt-on neck Articulate, punchy, and easily modified

Designed in collaboration with world-renowned bass accessory manufacturer Darkglass Electronics, Ernie Ball Music Man's DarkRay bass unlocks a whole new range of sonic capabilities.

At the heart of every instrument is its tone: in this case, a modern 2-Band EQ preamp was designed by Darkglass specifically for the DarkRay. This preamp offers three modes with very distinct and useful sounds: Clean, Alpha (distortion), and Omega (fuzz). Both distortion circuits are fully mixable via an onboard gain knob and blend control manipulated to the user's preference. Astonishing clean, slight gain, or a brutal fuzz tone is obtainable, all with no low-end loss. A bright LED ring and the 3-way lever switch indicates which mode the bass is in.

The DarkRay is every bit a Stingray Special with neodymium humbucking pickup, roasted maple neck, comfort contoured body, 22 stainless steel frets, and the familiar 3+1 headstock configuration.
