It is a beautifully made guitar with great tone.
Lovely guitar and the first time I’ve brought one without playing it first. Very friend and kept me up today with the order. The padded case is one of the best ones I’ve seen. Just great
This guitar is supplied with the custom pro setup package worth £225 which I highly recommend you read about.

Designed with serious bassists in mind, the new approach of adding ash top on a mahogany body ensures a great balance of warm yet full and punchy sounding lows and bright yet clear and transparent highs, not to mention ash’s beautiful wood grain for more a natural aesthetic. The newly developed Fishman Fluence Bass Soapbar pickups and its 2-band EQ will surely satisfy any hard-rocking modern bassist with its multi-voiced capabilities for a wide range of genres.

Fishman® Fluence Bass Soapbar
Based on Fishman’s convention-disrupting Fluence Core technology, the new pickups for bass bring the revolutionary multi-voice performance, dynamic range, and articulation of Fluence technology to 4-string and 5-string bassists. The three voices for the Fluence Soapbar were created to offer players a wide palette of sounds that cover all playing styles.
