Features We Love:

Mahogany Body

Mahogany is loved for its rich tone and weighty feel, this makes it ideal for bass guitars and it's a fantastic combination with the humbucking pickups and preamp which can take the guitar everywhere from silky warm tones to an aggressive punch.

Humbucking Pickups

The pickups have been designed to capture a very wide frequency range, the low end is captured accurately, present without sounding woolly and mid range and high frequencies are crisp and detailed.

Active Circuit

With the wide frequency range captured by the pickups, the active circuit allows you to sculpt this into the exact tone you're looking for. The 3-band EQ allow you to easily carve out any unwanted frequencies and the pre-amp and be turned on and off via a switch, offering both vintage and modern tones. This makes the guitar incredibly versatile, if you're changing from fingers to picks, jazz to metal, or popping and slapping, this bass can be whatever you need it to be.

Highlights:

• An affordable yet high quality instrument
• Versatile range of tones
