Frequently Asked Questions

It's a modern interpretation, offering similar warmth and growl, but with slightly more clarity and definition, making it more versatile for modern playing styles.
It's a noticeable improvement in comfort for many players; the 'Modern C' is thinner and more even than older, sometimes asymmetrical, P Bass necks, making it easier to navigate the fretboard.
It's a fairly natural rosewood grain, showing some of the wood's character – not a heavily darkened or oiled finish, which some players prefer.
