DISC ESP LTD BB100 5-String Bunny Brunel Bass Guitar, Black Aqua

Full Description

Aguilar Pickups

The BB-100 is equipped with a pair of Aguilar pickups, which consist of a 5J-HC pickup in the bridge position and a 5M in the neck. The 5J-HC is a split-coil pickup which is hum cancelling, and perfect for live performances. It produces the deep, big and dynamic bass tone which is ideal for Jazz yet can accommodate many different music styles as well. The 5M has a classic bass tone with the rich and harmonic sound of the Aguilar pickup. Players can easily shape their tone using the onboard Aguilar OBP-3 on-board preamp, perfect for finding the right volume during a performance.

Crafted From Alder

The BB100 crafted from alder and features a cutaway for easier access to the higher frets. 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 great bass for serious musicians who wish to play all night long.

Stunning Quilt Maple Top

The BB100 Bass is topped with quilt maple, which gives it a beautiful appearance. Although it is not just for aesthetics, the maple top also provides the alder body with a brighter and more defined tone. This stunning quilt maple top is finished in black aqua for an eye-catching look which is sure to stand out on stage.
