Hey everyone! Today we're taking a deep dive into my 2018 Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray Special and my 2017 Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray to figure out what the heck is the difference? The '17 was my first Stingray, and I didn't even know the specials existed or what the difference was. With so many different EBMM (and SBMM) Stingray models, it's a lot to keep track of. So let's go over the differences in detail so you can decide which 'Ray is the one for you!
