4 Strings of Music Man Innovation
The Ernie Ball Music Man Sterling electric bass guitar reflects the quality and craftsmanship that Ernie Ball Music Man has been delivering for decades. The Ernie Ball Music Man Sterling bass comes with an Ernie Ball Music Man chrome-plated, hardened-steel bridge plate, Schaller BM tuners, a humbucking pickup, and a 3-band active preamp. From the ash body to the maple neck, it's hard to find a bass with more quality and innovation. For an award-winning modern bass, choose the Ernie Ball Music Man Sterling electric bass.
Ash body and maple neck with 5-bolt attachment
The Ernie Ball Music Man Sterling's maple neck attaches to its select hardwood body with five bolts, ensuring a perfect string alignment. With no worry of string shifting, you can feel confident that your intonation and action will be spot on, regardless of your playing style. And bassists at Sweetwater dig the sculpted neck joint, which allows easy access up the fretboard.
Schaller BM tuners and adjustable truss rod
The tapered string posts of the Schaller BM tuners provide tuning stability, so whether you are a slap bass aficionado, or prefer a more mellow groove, you won't have to worry about tuning slippage. With the adjustable truss rod, you can easily set up the Sterling with the right action and relief to fit your playing style. And thanks to Ernie Ball Music Man's truss rod adjustment wheel, you can quickly tweak your truss without searching for the correct truss rod wrench.
Ernie Ball Music Man humbucking pickup with 3-band active preamp
The Ernie Ball Music Man Sterling bass offers a lot of sonic versatility. The Ernie Ball Music Man humbucking pickup has ceramic magnets that offer a balanced sound with an ample amount of that husky tone you would expect from a Ernie Ball Music Man bass. The 3-band active preamp gives the Ernie Ball Music Man humbuckers a nice boost, and you can dial in your tone to taste with the volume, treble, mid, and bass controls. This bass is well-equipped for any style of music.
