Description

Edit description

The Ernie Ball Sterling "Stealth" is a masterpiece of modern bass guitar engineering, designed for musicians who demand exceptional quality and versatility. Crafted with a select hardwood body and a maple neck, this electric bass offers both durability and a smooth, responsive playing experience. Its 5-bolt neck attachment ensures perfect string alignment, giving you the confidence that your intonation and action will remain precise, regardless of your playing style.

Equipped with a robust Ernie Ball Music Man humbucking pickup and a 3-band active preamp, the Sterling "Stealth" delivers a wide range of tones, from deep, thundering lows to bright, punchy highs. The ceramic magnets in the pickup provide a balanced sound that is perfect for any genre, while the preamp allows for detailed tone shaping with controls for volume, treble, mid, and bass.

The Schaller BM tuners provide exceptional tuning stability, making sure your bass stays in tune whether you're laying down a smooth groove or slapping out a funky rhythm. An adjustable truss rod further allows you to customize the setup to your personal playing style.

This bass not only stands out in performance but also in its craftsmanship. The chrome-plated, hardened-steel bridge plate and extensive electronics shielding ensure your sound is both powerful and noise-free, making it a reliable choice for live performances and studio sessions alike.
