2021年のニュー・モデルに「DarkRay」が加わりました。世界的に有名なベースアクセサリー・メーカーであるDarkglass Electronics社とのコラボレーションにより設計されたこのDarkRayは、まったく新しいサウンドへの可能性を示唆しています。 DarkRayの核心は、その音色にあります。DarkglassがDarkRayのために特別に設計した新型の2バンドEQプリアンプを搭載。このプリアンプは、クリーン、Alpha(ディストーション)、そしてOmega(ファズ)という、非常に個性的で有用なサウンドを持つ3つのモードを備えます。これらの回路は、オンボードのゲイン・ノブとブレンド・コントロールでミックス可能で、ユーザーの好みに合わせてコントロール可能。驚くほどのクリーン、わずかなゲイン、そして凶暴なファズ・トーンが、低域を損なうことなく得ることができます。どのモードにあるかは、照度の高いLEDリングと3ウェイ・レバー・スイッチで確認できます。 ネオジウム・ハムバッキング・ピックアップ、ローステッド・メイプル・ネック、コンフォート・コンタード・ボディ、ステンレス・フレット(22フレット)、そしてお馴染みの3+1タイプのヘッドストックなど、すべてが“スペシャルなStingray”となっています。カラーはObsidian Blackと、限定モデルのGranite Stoneの2色を展開します。

StingRay Meets DarkGlass

Custom Darkglass® clean 2-band active preamp

The DarkRay is equipped with a new modern 2 Band preamp that Darkglass specifically designed. The preamp is extremely clean and quiet with adjustable volume, gain, bass, treble, and blend controls to achieve the desired tone.

Alpha and Omega

The Darkglass preamp offers two highly regarded drive circuits, Alpha(tight distortion) and Omega(fuzz). Both distortion circuits are fully mixable via an onboard gain knob and blend control manipulated to the user’s preference with no low-end loss. Via the 3-way lever switch, a bright color-coded LED ring is illuminated, signifying which mode the bass is in.

DarkRay = StingRay

The DarkRay bass is every bit a Stingray Special with neodymium humbucking pickup, roasted maple neck, comfort contoured body, 22 stainless steel frets, all black hardware, and the familiar 3+1 headstock configuration.
