{"product_id":"865662","title":"MUSICMAN PINO PALLADINO StingRay Bass (79 Burst \/ Fretless)","description":"A StingRay signature model for world-renowned bassist Pino Palladino has arrived.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Pino Palladino Signature StingRay Bass captures the iconic tone and playability of one of the most influential bassists in history, Pino Palladino. Inspired by his original 1979 fretless StingRay, this signature model is available in both fretted and fretless versions, both faithfully recreating his unique tone and playability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This bass features a poplar body with a '79 Burst finish, a dark tinted maple neck with a thin rosewood fingerboard, and a unique asymmetrical neck curve that reflects the shape of the artist's original bass. The neck gradually changes from a powerful V-shape towards the bass side to a rounded C-shape towards the treble side, resulting in a more precise playing experience at your fingertips.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The pickups were designed specifically for this instrument based on a late 70s recipe and feature shorter pole pieces. They harmonize perfectly with the preamp, which has been voiced to reproduce the warmth and character of a well-established circuit. The 2EQ preamp is a hand-soldered circuit board with components that accurately reproduce the original specifications and CTS pots (500K treble pots instead of the same 1M pots used by the artist), and has been tuned to reproduce the tone of the preamp that the artist played through.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The bridge saddle is made of brass, and the nut is made of Nubone. The Graphtec Nubone nut, carefully hand-shaped with a width of 1.686 (42.8 mm), replicates his own modifications, enhancing tone, volume, and harmonics. The materials, electronics, and hardware work together in perfect harmony to create his iconic tone.\u003cbr\u003e The strings used are \"Pino Signature Smoothie Flats\" for the fretted models, which deliver a rich and powerful tone, and \"Ernie Ball Slinky Nickel Wound,\" a custom gauge string that provides smooth and expressive slides, for the fretless models.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is a guitar that offers an exceptional sound and playability, so don't miss out!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody Wood: Poplar\u003cbr\u003e Body Finish: High Gloss Polyester\u003cbr\u003e Body Colors: 79 Burst\u003cbr\u003e Scale Length: 34\u003cbr\u003e Neck Radius: 7.5\u003cbr\u003e Frets: Unlined\u003cbr\u003e Neck Width: 1.686 at Nut; 2.458 at Heel\u003cbr\u003e Neck Wood: Maple\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e Fret Markers: N\/A\u003cbr\u003e Neck Finish: Polyester\u003cbr\u003e Neck Colors: Dark Orange Tint\u003cbr\u003e Tuning Machines: Schaller Bass\u003cbr\u003e Bridge: Pre-EB Geometry Music Man(R) Chrome Plated, Steel Bridge Plate with Brass Saddles and Stainless Steel Spring Mutes\u003cbr\u003e Pickguard: 3 ply Black\/White\/Black\u003cbr\u003e Truss Rod: Traditional Bullet Nut at Headstock, Walnut Skunk Stripe on back of neck\u003cbr\u003e Neck Attachment: 3-Bolt, Pino Palladino Signature Neck Plate\u003cbr\u003e Controls: 2-band active preamp, 25k Volume; 500k Treble and 100k Bass\u003cbr\u003e Pickups: Late 70's voiced Music Man humbucker with pole pieces that sit flush\u003cbr\u003e Strings: 36w, 55w, 65w, 90w Custom Gauge Ernie Ball Nickelwound\u003cbr\u003e Weight: 4.3kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e MONO semi-hard case included","brand":"MUSICMAN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44049618763889,"sku":"865662","price":4554.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/865662_01.jpg?v=1787049813","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/ko\/products\/865662","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
