EMG Pickups

The AP Bass is equipped with a pair of EMG pickups, which consist of the EMG P at the neck and the EMG LJ at the bridge position. The EMG P is one of the most popular EMG Bass pickups as it has many sonic possibilities from classic to modern bass tones. The tone produced by the EMG P has excellent articulation with warmth and plenty of punch. The EMG LJ is known for its classic jazz bass characteristics and beautiful harmonic tones. This bridge pickup offers clarity, and a great dynamic range.

High Quality Hardware

For a premium tone, the AP Bass is loaded with high quality hardware, including Grover tuners to keep your tune locked all night long, and the Babicz FCH Bridge which offers a sharp tone with great sustain.

Double Cutaway Alder Body

The AP Bass is crafted from alder and features a double cutaway shape. Alder is a lightweight yet strong sounding tonewood, which makes it ideal for a bass due to its clear, full bodied tone. The lightweight wood also adds to the comfort of the guitar, making it a perfect choice for serious musicians who wish to play all night long with ease.

Maple Neck & Ebony Fingerboard

The maple neck offers a smooth and comfortable playing experience; which allows you to play for longer. The bright tones from the maple are enhanced by the ebony fingerboard, which is known for its extremely responsive and snappy attack.
