This innovation opens up endless options, from creamy vintage blues, to smooth jazz and funk, to the raunchiest sounding rock, all adding a fresh luster to the sound, making it bright and dynamic, as a result of the ‘openess’ of this single ‘F’ hole, chambered hollowbody. But it doesn’t stop there! As with the ‘P’ Series guitars, we have included a wonderful 6 way varitone switch. ‘Thunder Birds Are Us’ we hear you shout when you select this beauty of a neck humbucker, or ‘For Those About To Rock’ when you switch to the growling bridge humbucker. The B1 model consists of a single bridge Humbucker wound at 8.7k and the B2 comes with an additional neck Humbucker wound at 7.85k. Matt has ‘raised the bar’ and created some extraordinary sounding tones for this very special bass guitar. Once again, from Monty’s, the pickups are designed by Matt Gleeson. These choices are then crowned with a combination of black and aged white/ black binding and nickel hardware The laminated maple archtop contoured body style comes in a variety of finishes, including natural, teal green, honey sunburst, ivory, black, gold, and candy apple red. With a market dominated by the same old brands and - for the most part - the same old guitars, its getting increasingly rare. A maple neck and rosewood fret board are complemented with angled Mother of Pearl inlay. The 864mm scale neck is 43mm wide at the bone nut, 57mm at the end fret and consists of 20 frets.
The B1 & B2 full scale neck feels perfectly balanced on the 375mm x 44mm chambered centre block body. These spectacular new design’s consist of the same body dimensions as the ‘P’ Series guitars.
