[/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3]Product Details [/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3]MAPLE BODY AND NECK: The body and neck of the CR Series Double Bass are crafted of solid European hard maple, with a flame maple face. The neck has a traditional upright shape, but with extended access to the upper register of the fingerboard. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3]EBONY FINGERBOARD: The seasoned ebony fingerboard is hand graduated to insure that each note is even and buzz free. An adjustable truss rod allows for precise relief adjustment for different strings and playing style. Small dots across the neck provide accurate position markers. POLAR BRIDGE PICKUP SYSTEM: The Polar pickups can sense either lateral or vertical string vibration - or both! Set in the lateral mode, the pickup has unparalleled sensitivity in the direction of the bow. In the vertical mode, plucked notes are remarkably even and sustained. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3]EMG MAGNETIC PICKUPS: The low-impedance EMG pickups incorporate individually adjustable coils and neodymium magnets. Each coil is buffered separately for a full sound quality with very low noise. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3]ACTIVE EQ AND MIXER: Controls include volume, a blend control for magnetic and piezo pickups, a toggle switch to select the mode of the Polar pickup, and individual bass EQ & treble EQ controls. The 18 volt power supply insures plenty of reserve overhead for full dynamics. [/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3]ADJUSTABLE BRIDGE: Two screws in the back of the body are used to adjust the bridge up and down. This allows the instrument to be set up to meet the requirements of many different playing styles.[/size][/font][/color] [attachment=160508:20131127_214813.jpg] [attachment=160510:20131127_214826.jpg] [attachment=160511:20131127_214851.jpg] [attachment=160512:20131127_215046.jpg] Thanks for looking.
