Unleash the Depth with Baritone Brilliance

Showcasing a deeper, heavier tone than any standard-scale solidbody, the Sterling by Music Man StingRay Baritone shakes the earth with a 27.5-inch scale length and B–B baritone tuning. This subterranean electric guitar features a poplar body mated to a bolt-on roasted maple neck, bolstered by a 12-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard with 24 medium-size frets. Tone-wise, ceramic-fueled humbuckers dish out rich, lush cleans and pummeling, gain-laden riffage with equal authority, reinforced by a 3-way toggle pickup selector. You also get a rock-solid complement of high-quality hardware, comprising a vintage-style tremolo and locking tuners. Moreover, it’s topped off with a superb assemblage of eye-grabbing appointments, including pearloid block fingerboard inlays, a painted headstock, and a spotlight-ready gloss finish. Whether you wield it for down-low country twang or drop-tuned metallic destruction, the Sterling StingRay Baritone delivers no-compromise power, playability, and style for players who crave a sublime melding of thunderous lows and contoured comfort.

Primed for down-tuned demolition

Clocking in with a scale length of 27.5 inches — two inches longer than the standard 6-string StingRay — the Sterling StingRay Baritone delivers rafter-shaking tones with superior extended-range edge. In comparison to drop-tuned, standard-scale guitars, the StingRay Baritone’s low strings boast optimal tension and a clearer, more focused tone. Thus, you won’t get any unwanted buzz from floppy low strings, making this instrument an excellent choice for modern metal musicians searching for a deeper, heavier sound without venturing into the world of 7-string guitars.

Baritone twang or metallic muscle? You decide.

Thanks to an HH configuration of premium ceramic-loaded humbuckers, plugging into the Sterling by Music Man StingRay Baritone reaps tremendous sonic rewards. In high-gain scenarios, these muscular pickups deliver an incredibly punchy sound with plenty of aggressive attitude. Additionally, they exhibit tremendous clarity and ample dynamic range, ensuring that they fit seamlessly into mellower arrangements as well, whether you’re playing a gentle clean passage or injecting baritone-infused twang into a high-octane country tune. Here at Sweetwater, we’re duly impressed by the sheer number of captivating tones you can milk out of the StingRay Baritone by simply tweaking its Volume and Tone knobs in tandem with the 3-way toggle pickup selector.

High-end details that make a statement

The Sterling StingRay Baritone is replete with high-quality appointments. For starters, the vintage-style tremolo puts a wide range of ear-grabbing pitch-bending articulations firmly in your grasp, bolstered by a rock-solid set of locking tuning machines. Beyond that, there’s plenty of exquisite eye candy on display, such as pearloid block fingerboard inlays, a painted headstock, and gleaming chrome hardware. A spotlight-ready gloss finish offers the perfect final polish to this breathtaking baritone.

Reviews

Definitely one I'm looking forward to getting
I was lucky enough to try this out at NAMM2026 and was the show stealer for me out of all the other instruments. Now, I wasn't able to test out how it sounds, but: neck feels fantastic, the weight feels solid and not like a toy (in the middle of not too heavy or too light), string tension with the Ernie Ball Baritone strings felt perfect. I have been thinking about this one since and am looking forward to getting this one when it's finally out.
