Guitar Connection: Pinnacle 5-String Bass

Description

Sophisticated Style. Serious Sound. Pinnacle 4-string and 5-string bass guitars combine an excellent sound, remarkable feel, and stylish looks that demanding bass players will appreciate. The swamp ash body is finished with an eye-catching burled poplar top in a body shape that evenly distributes the weight of the instrument to make even the most extended sessions comfortable. The five-piece maple and walnut neck with an ebony fretboard allow notes to sing true while being highly playable. And glow-in-the-dark side markers makes navigating on a dark stage a piece of cake. The Michael Kelly MCN bridge with its adjustable saddles provide side-to-side micro adjustments for optimized string spacing. Truss rod adjustments are easily made using the exposed wheel at the base of the fretboard. Pinnacle basses allow every player to quickly define their own signature sound. Two custom-wound Rockfield MDC humbucker pickups deliver a mid-range punch, with an increased output for a driven voice that's rich with sustain. Each dual-coil pickup is equipped with a coil-split switch for delivering an airy, single-coil tone. The push-pull Master Volume knob enables the active electronics or bypasses the preamp for a vintage passive tone. The Michael Kelly custom preamp features a 3-band EQ with Bass, Mid and Treble controls. With this comprehensive electronics platform, Pinnacle basses can achieve an endless range of tonal possibilities.
