The body of this bass is made of proven ash wood, to which is bolted a neck made up of five pieces of jatoba and walnut. The fingerboard is also made of jatoba and features 24 medium-sized frets.
The instrument is fitted with two Nordstrand Big Break passive pickups, whose sound characteristics can be changed via a three-position Mid Frequency switch. The Balance and Volume controls are used to further influence the tone, and there is also a three-band equalizer that can be used to add or subtract bass, treble and mids.
The hardware is finished in Matte Black, and the strings are mounted in a solid Accu-Cast B500 headstock with extra-large holes to accommodate even the thickest batches of strings. The stones in the headstock are also protected against sideways movement. Precision tuning mechanisms with large pins allow for comfortable tuning.
The Soundgear Standard Series basses are designed for a wide range of players who require a perfectly crafted instrument with great sound without having to invest huge sums in it.
