Voordelige StingRay-bas met active twee-bands EQ en humbucker pickup die de gedurfde, punchy StingRay-geluid tegen een toegankelijke prijs opleveren.
The SUB Ray4 remains the gold standard for budget-friendly active basses, distilling the iconic StingRay DNA into a package that punches way above its weight class. While it utilizes affordable poplar for the body, the resonance is surprisingly lively. A standout feature is the 38mm nut width; it's narrower than a traditional StingRay, offering a sleek, Jazz-style playability that makes complex lines feel effortless, particularly for players with smaller hands.
Sonically, the ceramic humbucker and 2-band active EQ deliver that unmistakable 'scooped' punch and high-end sizzle. It's aggressive and cuts through a live mix with ease, though the preamp is notoriously 'hot'"cranking the treble can introduce some floor noise, so subtle adjustments are key. The satin-finished neck feels fast and professional, though, at this price point, you might encounter some slightly sharp fret ends that require a quick polish.
In the entry-level bracket, it's rare to find an instrument with this much distinct character. It isn't just a 'beginner' bass; it's a legitimate tool for funk, rock, and punk players who crave that active Music Man growl without the four-figure investment. It's a testament to Sterling's impressive quality control within their Indonesian production line.
