Checking Out My Custom Music Man Sting Ray RS!

[@TylerJohnstonGuitar]

I’m a big fan of this one for a weird reason. It’s essentially if an EBMM Axis had a baby with a Kramer Baretta.

[@tylerbrittan593]

And a G&L Rampage too!

[@donkeyboy585]

Before you even said it I’m like “wow the Rampage vibe is strong…. Love it!

[@deckert618]

The JB is my favorite pup of all time. You're right, you simply can't go wrong with it.

[@andrewbecker3700]

Simple and effective. THATS, what I'm talking about brother! That guitar kicks ass! If they go into production in the Sterling line, and offer some color choices. I'm thinking they'll sell tons.

[@AlexLopezRock]

I see the Jerry Cantrell G&L Rampage vibes. I like it.

[@justfine77777]

I have owned a hellified amount of guitars, and I’ve really liked some of them, and I didn’t care for some of them. The best guitar I’ve owned by a long shot is an EBMM. When it comes to fit and finish, components, playability, and being super nice right out of the box, you cannot beat their guitars.

[@michaelmenkes7233]

When Music Man uses block inlays worlds collide. And I love it. My Cutlass BFR has them too.

[@xlunchxboxx]

Great choices Fluff it's a really beautiful guitar. This make me hope they open up the Custom Design Experience to the Stingray RS now!

[@sinakaedwards2009]

Your frets are always immaculate. They make the guitar look even more luxurious.

[@jhmusic1]

All of his Music Mans have stainless steel frets. Stainless steel doesn't tarnish like standard nickel does so they effectively stay polished/mirror shined forever

[@sinakaedwards2009]

@@jhmusic1 They seem to pop more than any other frets, almost like they are glowing. The polish job, maybe the fretboard is dark to provide good contrast, and the light is reflecting right.

[@moetrauma]

Love the color combo here, along with the block inlays. Very cool!

[@Jeremoid]

Man, I swear I was about to comment about Cantrell's influence on this guitar just by looking at it in the thumbnail. Looks gorgeous, the fret inlays, the black hardware, and the knob placement is very convenient for heavy handed players, such an axe!

[@alexmbrenner]

Music Man makes great guitars. Single pickup is a must. That’s rad!

[@Tarnished2023]

Definitely love the simplicity of it. A well-built rock machine for sure.

[@joshcasper5038]

REALLY nice one, Ryan!! Totally dig the Rampage vibe, but a classed up version! Tux with an axe- perfect description! Maybe I missed it, but what’s the body wood on this one? You mentioned it being about 9 pounds, is it maple like the Rampage?

[@oyepvokadub6522]

I am in love with this guitar.

[@raycymbalisty5503]

love musicman guitars i had 2 silhouette specials my only problem with them was i had to replace the frets every 3 months they were just to week for my custom 10 gage low E was a 52

[@djguzzy10]

block inlays just add so much. muah chefs kiss. or huak twah on that thang

[@RiffsAndBeards]

Hahahahaha

[@tyrannosaurusriffs]

I love that off white color. It looks so good!

[@RhinestonePickupTruck]

Didn’t one of your Ernie’s belonged to Shaun Morgan previously? I feel like I read that somewhere. Absolutely love Shaun & Fluff. Such a rad guitar with a rad history if this is true.

[@RiffsAndBeards]

Mmm nope that would be cool tho haha

[@RhinestonePickupTruck]

@@RiffsAndBeards Awh man, I’ve believed that for like two years now 😂

[@-cobainism-]

i love how you’ve got one based off the kurt cobain mustang, and now one based off jerry cantrells rampage. dope.

[@MPF-80]

Very cool. Love the Stingrays! Definitely a “grail” for me.

[@RobertNolan]

I'm not gonna lie, I've been really curious about EBMM StingRay models since I've been watching you more lately.

[@GuitarGuy4647]

All this is missing is neck binding to make it perfect. Also, if you were going for the Cantrell vibe you should've gone with a Kahler Hybrid or Professional bridge. A Motor City Afwayu would've been a plus too since that's what Cantrell uses and it's based on the JB.

[@barry3045]

Nice guitar Fluff. Reminds me of my Fender Jim Root Jazzmaster 🤘🏼

[@MrGus937]

Not a big Musicman fan, BUT your sig guitars look badass!

[@matt926uk1]

Classy and modern at the same time, nice guitar.

[@dylantolan1108]

We need this as a Signature Sterling 👀👀

[@highsocietyskate]

Love the demo with a classic JMP!

[@schwab21121]

Simple is mo better! Great job on this one EB and Fluff.

[@onehandslinger1475]

What's the body made of? Did I miss something? Sounds pretty bright.

[@moparbryan]

One Hum, one volume, vintage white- this is the way

[@cz875]

It is beautiful and sounds mean as all hell. Does EB sell that hardtail bridge anywhere? like a replacement part/s ? I want that bridge so bad lol.

[@genesnodgrass]

Apologies if I missed it, I watched a couple times but may have missed it. Is the body maple too?

[@allengarrow6295]

Not a huge fan of the body shape… but this looks great and it sounds great! To be expected EBMM. They are magickal! Thank you for sharing

[@fuzzcous]

Cool looking axe, you have nice taste.

[@quentincroisez8061]

FANTASTIIIIIIICCCCC

[@miaoleman8605]

I wish Music Man would do a production model Stingray with that bridge.

[@indierockluke]

That is a BEAUTY.

[@jamescreswell3274]

Love it! Make one with a Kahler.

[@t.sewell1513]

MM make some of the best guitars ever!

[@freebzz]

really nice guitar m8

[@RokDAWG1]

It really looks cool & definitely sounds good BUT I want you & Musicman to release your mat black, white binding ass kicking Armada! Throw in some Jim Wagner Pickups (Formerly WCR Pickups) & ad coil splitting with WVH frictionless pots. Ship that baby out! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Edwardobartolo]

That’s a beautiful fiddle

[@1vexed73]

So what happened with the fluence pickups? Still use them or?

[@__belial__]

I am absolutely going to order myself a EBMM custom shop some day. I don’t know when, but it WILL happen. Edit: did he say what pup is in it?

[@paulcarter105]

I would love a white, cream or light blue/seafoam green or turquoise one volume one pickup guitar

[@BlazonStone]

Single humbucker guitar are awesome!

[@NotoriousEDC]

Holy shit that is so dope!

[@brandontourigny6384]

We need you to ask Ernie Ball to make this a limited run or a staple in their line Please!

[@dieselsk8]

Very nice music machine!

[@KeganVanSickle]

I'd like to see a guitar collection updated video.

[@angrychivafan]

Love how it looks. Can you play metal on it? 🤘

[@Ryan_Sens]

They should make it a production model, and give the option of a tremolo

[@brandontourigny6384]

Well damn I wanted G&L to rerelease the Superhawk bc of the hard tail now I want this!

[@Little_Lemon200]

I really dislike bridge pickups lmao, I never use the middle or bridge. Always on the neck position on my 335, SG, Fender Strat, Les Paul. I would do a reverse style Stingray with only a neck pickup. A Fishman Fluence single coil format or any good humbucker with the Single coil voice. I'm just that kind of guy. I prefer passive pickups but with a one pickup guitar you should have a Fishman Fluence for versatility purposes and maybe a piezo system for more unique sounds.

[@blaness13]

I don't know why but I generally don't like the look of single pickup guitars (personal opinions no right or wrong implied), and at the start of the video i didn't dig it, but the more the video went on, the more it started to grow on me, Love the inlays too, i think it gives something extra to look at with the absence of a neck pickup

[@hunybadgerbill]

Rad! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@michaelstewart2437]

I’d add a slanted Texas special neck pickup for Cobain inspired Music Man.

[@Yellowmusicroom]

EB needs to make a run. That is all.

[@TG-of3sp]

Imagine this as a 7 or even 8 string. Would be something special 👍🏼 nice guitar though 👏🏼

[@derKleine92]

I wanna get this one!

[@martinclayton7260]

That would look amazing if it was purple, and with gold hardware!

[@sinakaedwards2009]

I keep thinking it reminds me of something EBMM would make for Tom Delong.

[@sonofboar13]

I saw it and instantly thought Jerry's Rampage

[@Only2genders43]

I love single pickup guitars.

[@OmarBhoo]

It looks cool man but if no neck PU I would have gotten 24 frets.

[@centocerez]

Not loving the matching headstock. Other than that it's awesome, I love single humbucker guitars... Just last month I converted my Jazzmaster to a grunge/alternative single JB beast.

[@TheGorillafoot]

It's the simple things in life

[@DerSilvano]

Ok cool

[@daleonov]

It looks great, but am I the only one who didn't like the tone from the demo? I assume he tried to replicate Jerry Cantrell's tones, but it didn't match his excited speech about the tone at all, for my ears at least.

[@giulioluzzardi7632]

" One-off" no no no no !

[@TopK3k]

this black tape or whatever it is above the nut reminded me about ibanez "tension free" neck

[@lilbitofOverdrive]

I had one of those Rgs years ago you could take the headstock off it was wild

[@Ottophil]

@@lilbitofOverdrivei took the headstock off a MIJ RG7620 from 1998, but it didnt go back on.

[@tradbowseven]

Both stingrays I’ve owned were just too heavy🙁

[@goatsurgeon]

That guitar looks like it could fertilize an egg in the womb

[@lilbitofOverdrive]

cream off white tortoise shelll ? wtf

[@ericolson326]

Looks pearloid from here. 🤷

[@evenzeroescanbeheroes6875]

But like where are the Sterlings at? My wallet already hates me as a guitarist lol

[@jaybirdgoody]

"I'd by that for a dollar"

[@JoneHoftun]

Music man is such a weird company to me, the Majesty is arguably the guitar i want the most in the world, it`s insane, but they dont make a single other guitar that i even think looks ok.

[@HeyItsAsmus]

I think I'm the only one in the world that hates block inlays..

[@yurita1984]

1 humbucker guitars are like half of a guitar, half of sound, but full priced😂

[@NightPwnGaming]

Nah, they're usually cheaper than the HH or HSS variants. Plus they look better, are simpler, and possibly have better sustain without other pickups interfering (although not sure if anyone's actually proved this last point).

[@Ottophil]

The only half some of us need.

[@JayBruceWorld]

That’s why the guitar industry is pushing it so hard

[@BlazonStone]

Not everyone needs a neck pickup, or at least not all the time. I have sevearl 1-humbucker guitars, and if I ever need any other pickups, I have more guitars for those applications :) It's always easy to rout out the guitar for a neck pickup if wanted. But for a guitar without pickguard, and you would prefer it as a 1-hum guitar visually, it would require a lot of work to fill the holes and refinish with the right color and everything. I appreciate simple 1-hum guitars coming out lately to allow everone to fit their taste!

[@ShredCo]

I think Bert Kreischer ruined you guys' image

[@jimmypenrose1401]

Given the price of electric guitars these days, it defies reason that anyone would be willing to pay those astronomical prices for an instrument with only one pickup. I guess there's no shortage of people out there who consider a tonally castrated instrument desirable. I'm definitely NOT one of them; I would never throw away my hard earned money on a one trick pony. Painting with a single color is called doodling.

[@RiffsAndBeards]

Ok

[@frankhandy7345]

Gross

[@staticmotion9438]

Nobody cares

He may not be in a band atm, but he obviously already knows how to play his guitars. He’s currently learning how to play your mom like a fiddle. Tell your dad to quit crying, he’ll learn to love again.
