This Artist Series StingRay is a simple but effective instrument suitable for any playing style. Its Honduran mahogany body is known for rich tonal qualities. It imparts warmth, resonance, and sustain making the guitar perfect for palm muting and chugging rhythms. The simplified electronics with volume-only push-pull control and a three-way switch and hardtail bridge deliver a wide variety of great tones, from hard-edged distortion to clear, crisp highs.

The “Fluff” Artist Series StingRay features a perfectly balanced double-cutaway body design, allowing unparalleled access to all 22 stainless steel frets. Additionally, the roasted maple neck is hand-shaped with a comfortable asymmetric "C" neck shape that fits in the palm of your hand.
Finest Materials
Hand-selected body and neck woods are sustainably sourced from our network of hardwood suppliers worldwide. Mahogany, ebony, and maple are individually chosen and matched for their beautiful appearance and rich tonal qualities.
