Frequently Asked Questions
The active EQ offers far more precise and dramatic tonal sculpting – boosting or cutting frequencies significantly beyond what a passive circuit allows. It’s a big tonal upgrade, but loses the simplicity of a passive bass.
Yes, the roasted maple neck has a satin finish, providing a smooth, fast feel. This satin finish is less thick than a gloss finish, allowing for better access to the fretboard.
The Neon Yellow finish is durable, but it will show wear more prominently than darker colors. A good quality polish and careful handling will help preserve its vibrancy over time.
