Ernie Ball Music Man

collapse expand iconDescription

The Ernie Ball Music Man DarkRay 4-string electric bass was designed in conjunction with world-renowned bass accessory manufacturer Darkglass Electronics to deliver a wide range of sonic capabilities. At the heart of the DarkRay is a modern 2-band EQ preamp with three modes: Clean, Alpha (tight distortion) and Omega (fuzz). Both distortion circuits are fully mixable via an onboard Gain knob and Blend control. Take your sound from astonishing clean, to slight gain, to brutal fuzz and everything in between, all with no low-end loss. Additional appointments to the DarkRay include an LED ring and 3-way lever to identify the current mode, plus a neodymium humbucking pickup, roasted maple neck, comfort contoured body, 22 stainless steel frets, matte black hardware and the familiar 3+1 headstock configuration.
