DISC Sterling SUB Ray4 Bass RW, Trans Red Satin

Full Description

Explosive bass power

Playing bass can be an unforgiving task. It's easy to lose what you're playing amidst guitars, drums, and singers - especially if you're playing the wrong instrument. So don't. The S.U.B will bring power back to your bass playing. Its huge high-output humbucker at the bridge gives you as much volume as you could possibly want. Which means cutting through the mix simply won't be a problem. And unlike many other bass pickups, cranking up the volume won't result in any nasty feedback. The S.U.B's pickup eliminates noise interference, ensuring total clarity. You know your basslines are good. Make sure your audience knows it, too.

Sound that's yours to shape

Versatility is key in a bass guitar. From one song to the next, bassists often have to switch up their tone to suit each individual track. The S.U.B Ray4 makes that process hassle-free. It's loaded with an easy-to-use 2-band active EQ. With controls for bass and treble, you can alter your tone from booming depth to sparkling highs in the blink of an eye. Your ideal sound - quick and simple.

Hardened for the road

Ready for use - night after night. The Sterling Ray4 is constructed from a variety of solid tonewoods. A tough basswood body and maple neck are both durable and long-lasting. And with a super-strong six bolt neck joint, you'll never have to worry about it bending or snapping. It'll easily deal with whatever life on the road throws at it.

Pristine playability

You've never enjoyed a playing experience this smooth before. Every tiny feature of the Ray4 has had painstaking attention-to-detail paid to it, ensuring playability is at the absolute pinnacle. It all starts with the satin finished neck, which will feel natural and entirely at home in your frethand. The finish gives it a smooth and comfortable playing action. And it never gets sticky. So even at the sweatiest of gigs, your hand won't be getting stuck - you can fly up and down the scale without being held back.

An authentic rosewood fingerboard brings crisp articulation in every note, as well as feeling amazing beneath your fingers. Every note will flow effortlessly from your fingertips. Plus, playing all the way to the top of the fretboard is a breeze. An easy-access neck heel allows you to hit high-end notes without ever getting in the way of your playing. Independently, these enhancements are still awesome. Together, they deliver playability the likes of which other basses can only dream of.

Look good

In fact, better than good. Look amazing. This bass is certain to make you stand out on any stage. A bold trans red finish brings a splash colour into your aesthetic. A unique oval-shaped black pickguard at the guitar's centre adds a touch of individuality. And sparkling chrome hardware will shine beneath stage lights. Forget the singer. Forget the guitarist. Let your bass command all of the audience's attention.
