Description

DarkRay 5

Designed in collaboration with the world-renowned bass accessory manufacturer Darkglass Electronics, the DarkRay offers a whole new range of sonic possibilities.
At the heart of every instrument is its sound: in this case, a modern 2-band equalizer preamplifier was designed by Darkglass specifically for the DarkRay. This preamp offers three modes with very distinct and useful sounds: Clean, Alpha (distortion), and Omega (fuzz). The two distortion circuits are fully mixable via a built-in gain knob and a blend control adjusted according to the user's preferences. It is possible to achieve an amazingly clear sound, a slight gain, or a brutal fuzz sound, all without loss in the low frequencies. A luminous LED ring and the 3-way toggle switch indicate the mode the bass is in.
The DarkRay is a true Stingray Special with its neodymium humbucking pickup, roasted maple neck, contoured body, 22 stainless steel frets, and familiar 4+1 headstock configuration.

HIGHLIGHTS

ROASTED NECK
The DarkRay features a roasted maple neck, ebony fingerboard with stainless steel frets, and matte black hardware.

At this price, we hope it will work out Well ?? the quality is there The neck is really easy to play, even more pleasant than my Spector lx5 Perfectly set scale length and the B string sounds wonderful ?? In terms of sound adjustment, nothing simpler despite appearances.. S A clear sound position (treble + bass knob) Position 2 FUZ, position 3 DISTO and a blend knob to adjust these two effects (really easy to use) A versatile bass that fits into almost every mix, a little less in metal but don't overdo it
