    This bass low-key sounds great clean. Differently voiced 2 band compared to other Stingrays.

    Thank you for the video. This gives a lot better perspective of its versatility. Would love to hear a preamp comparison between your regular EBMM Special and the DarkRay!

    I actually sold it because I loved this one so much but I did do this on this one and showed the difference for the single H sound: kzread.info/dash/bejne/m46rscF6nbTSqM4.html

    Thanks. I checked out the ending of that video. Correct me if I am wrong but it seems to me that the Dark Glass has more attack and is a bit more bright/transparent than the Special. The special seems to be more round. Would you agree with that assessment? Did you use any of the other pickup positions on the Special or did you generally run it in the bridge? Is there anything you miss about the Special?

    I have the dark Rey 4 and have a 5 on order. I love the one I have but the biggest complaint (If you want to call it that) is that having the distortion on board doesn’t afford you the ability to really switch it on/off with precision, mid-song. With a pedal you can accurately switch over but with it on-board, it’s nearly impossible to switch it mid-song while you’re playing.

    Thank you for the review. Thinking about getting one. There better not be any dead spots for $2900. I know that includes tax and shipping, but does it also come with a case?

    Soon all new USA EBMM basses and guitars will included a nice MONO gigbag. The Darkray is a fun bass and very well made. Highly recommend checking them out. If they would make a B7k version, I think it would be an even bigger hit.
