This is a Timed Edition model—pre-order by 5/31. Shipping starts in September.
The final boss in the Joe Dart Artist Series trilogy packs funk goodness into a compact 30" short scale frame. Built from the iconic StingRay body and equipped with a split single coil pickup for a tighter bass response, the Dart III is your clean and lean groove machine.
Each bass is made to order, with the “crop year” written on the back of the headstock to mark this special release. Deluxe gig bag included.
For a thicker, more rounded sound, the Dart III is outfitted with passive electronics and a split single-coil pickup, evoking an old-school, woody charm. It’s straightforward with just one volume knob, leaving the tone and feel in the hands of the player.
A short scale StingRay built to 30" will have you dancing across the fretboard, thanks to shorter spacing between all 22 frets. Lightweight and minimalist, yet with all the same punch. Enjoy the ride, with zero compromises.
The Joe Dart Artist Series bass, a collaboration with Vulfpeck’s famed bassist, proves there's power in simplicity. A blank canvas, it embodies the no-frills philosophy of the original Ernie Ball Music Man design—distraction-free and fitted with flatwound strings for the smoothest feel. Built for the joy of playing.
