Familiar, but Fresh

When you pick up this bass, you'll find it immediately familiar. The same comfort, feel and sonic versatility is present that has made the instrument so popular among a legion of players from contrasting genres. It's equipped with brand new V-Mod II Jazz Bass single-coil pickups – which are characterised by the same great clarity and punch that's become synonymous with the instrument.

Alongside this, you'll find a slim C shaped neck profile augmented with smooth rolled fingerboard edges, a smartly sculpted neck heel and a 'super natural' satin finish. This all combines to create one seriously comfortable playing experience – even during the longest practice sessions and live shows!

Bass Guitars

Bass guitars form the backbone of a band’s sound, sitting between rhythm and harmony to give music depth, weight, and movement. Available in electric and acoustic forms, they focus on delivering strong, controlled low frequencies while remaining clear and responsive to playing dynamics. Factors like scale length, string type, and pickup design all influence tone and feel, allowing bass guitars to suit a wide range of styles and techniques. Whether laying down solid grooves or exploring more melodic lines, a good bass guitar anchors the music and brings everything together.

Fretless Bass Guitars

Fretless bass guitars offer a smooth, expressive playing experience by removing frets, allowing notes to glide seamlessly into one another. This design gives greater control over pitch, vibrato, and dynamics, producing a warm, vocal-like tone that’s popular in jazz, fusion, ambient, and experimental music. Without frets to define each note, accuracy and touch become more important, encouraging a more expressive and intentional playing style. Fretless bass guitars reward careful technique with a unique, fluid sound that stands out in a mix.

Fretless

Fretless instruments have a smooth fingerboard without metal frets, allowing notes to be played by finger placement alone. This design enables continuous pitch variation, subtle slides, and expressive vibrato that are not possible on fretted instruments.

They are most commonly found on bass guitars but also exist in guitars and other stringed instruments. Fretless instruments are valued for their warm, vocal-like tone and expressive feel, making them popular in jazz, fusion, ambient, and experimental styles where nuance and articulation are important.
