Frequently Asked Questions
The EMG pickups offer a much more aggressive, defined, and modern tone – less of the traditional 'woody' P-bass sound, with more output and clarity.
Yes, bolt-on necks generally don’t resonate quite as freely as set-neck or five-piece designs, but the precision construction and PLEK'd fretwork compensate for this and maintain excellent playability.
The anodized finish is quite durable and resistant to scratches, but it can show fingerprints easily and might be prone to minor scuffs with heavy use.
