F Bass BN5 Autumn Burst Fade
An incredible example of what F-Bass can build. This bass produces an incredibly thick rich tone that is anchored by references to classic Fender basses but given a modern edge. Sweet high end, beautiful rounded lows and growl in the mid range. The addition of the very natural sounding preamp allows for variability towards more modern sounds.
The two separate volumes allow you to blend the two pickups in any amount of each, not limiting you to the fixed levels of a blend control. The passive tone control functions whether in passive or active mode enabling it to modify a different set of frequencies than the ones affected by the active tone controls.
The BN5 in particular has an extremely sleek feel and is one of the easiest five string basses to play. These fretted basses are well balanced standing or sitting and are a joy to play.
