Introducing the highly anticipated DarkRay 5, an innovative StingRay model designed in collaboration with Darkglass Electronics.

The custom Darkglass® 2-band active preamp offers three modes: Clean (Preamp-only), Alpha (Distortion), and Omega (Fuzz), all accessible without a pedalboard. Switch between these circuits effortlessly with a colour-coded LED ring and 3-way selector. You'll unlock total tonal control via volume, treble, and bass adjustments, along with onboard gain and blend knobs for customized distortion. A roasted maple neck and ebony fingerboard round out the modern design.
