Pickup
The Nick Silver Mr. Iggy pickups, together with the flexible four-position circuit, produce a wide range of crisp single-coil sounds. The pickups are inspired by the '51 P-Bass pickups.
The Alnico V magnets are blackened and in combination with the covers made of recycled HDPE they give the Short Scale Bass a distinctive look.
Electronics
The switch offers four pickup combinations: Neck solo, neck and bridge parallel in-phase, bridge solo, neck and bridge parallel out-of-phase. The latter position produces a honky sound with very present midrange, which with its vintage vibe clearly cuts through the mix.
The switch for selecting the pickups is easy to grip and a scale shows the current position for better orientation. With a volume control and a global tone control, the desired sound is quickly found. The electronics compartment contains high-quality parts such as TAD Sprague Orange Drops or CTS pots.
Woods & Hardware
High-quality hardware such as the Schaller 3D Bass bridge, the weight-optimised HipShot Tuners or the handmade brass nut are explicitly selected and manufactured to ensure the best possible handling and ergonomics.
The body is made of three-piece alder. Neck and fingerboard are made of fumed cherry.
The neck is Odie's Oil treated. It is the perfect finish to bring out the beautiful grain of the wood and at the same time protects the surface from moisture and dirt.
