Expanding upon the aggressive, modern design of the original DarkRay, the DarkRay II returns with polyphonic octave up and down controls, along with the custom Darkglass preamp that made the original famous. What a great time to be a bassist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DarkRay II is constructed from a double-cutaway contoured ash body and bolt-on roasted maple neck. The body is finished in a sleek black finish and is stylized with black hardware and multi-ply pickguard. The 5 bolt-on maple neck features a sculpted neck heel for improved access to the upper frets. The smooth playing neck is topped with a rich ebony fingerboard that is crowned with 22 stainless steel frets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the bass is a custom Darkglass 2-band preamp that includes a 3-band EQ, push\/push gain control for the Alpha and Omega distortion modes, and a push\/push for the newly integrated octave up\/down feature. A streamlined wiring design along with a orange\/purple indicator ring lights makes it easy to switch control settings on the fly so you're never confused. Amplifying everything is a single humbucker in the bridge position that was designed with Neodynmium magnets for high output punch and clarity. The bass includes a set of Ernie Ball rechargeable batteries for the preamp. Strings are loaded through the vintage Music Man style bridge and are tuned to pitch at the matching black headstock with the 3+1 custom Music Man tuning machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete with a Music Man branded Mono case, the DarkRay II is ready for whatever comes its way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble--cutaway ash body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt-on roasted maple neck with sculpted neck joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEbony fingerboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e22 stainless steel frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDarkglass preamp with 2 distortion voices (Alpha\/Omega)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOctave up + down control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHumbucking bridge pickup with Neodynmium magnets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRechargeable lithium-ion batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMono case included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Music Man","offers":[{"title":"S14393","offer_id":67877556584616,"sku":"1310151BB1MBBM|||S14393","price":3299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1210\/3886\/files\/1310151BB1MBBM_EMBARGO-111226-DARK-RAY-II-BLACK-WITH-MATCHING-HEADSTOCK-ROASTED-_S14393_3.jpg?v=1794510634","url":"https:\/\/www.russomusic.com\/products\/music-man-darkray-ii-bass-guitar-roasted-maple-neck-black","provider":"Russo Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
