What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Ernie Ball Music Man BFR DarkRay Grapes of Wrath is a striking modern bass that pairs premium craftsmanship with an aggressive, highly versatile voice. Its ash body topped with figured maple delivers excellent clarity, punch, and sustain, while the neodymium humbucker provides the powerful foundation Music Man basses are known for. The onboard Alpha and Omega distortion circuits add a unique level of tonal flexibility, allowing players to move from clean, articulate bass tones to rich, saturated drive at the flip of a switch. Finished in the eye-catching Grapes of Wrath gloss finish with purple block inlays and black hardware, it makes a bold statement both visually and sonically. Powerful, articulate, and unapologetically modern, this BFR StingRay is built for players who want their bass to stand out in every way.
