Description
The Chord CAB41-BK is a classically styled bass guitar built for players who want a solid, deep tone without any fuss. Its contoured solid basswood body sits comfortably against you, while the split coil hum-cancelling pickup keeps the sound clean and free of unwanted buzz. Volume and tone controls give you simple, direct control over how the bass sounds, so you can dial in warmer or brighter results as you play.
The bolt-on maple neck carries an HPL rosewood or maple fingerboard with 21 large frets, giving you plenty of room to move across the range. The traditional headstock is fitted with four clover leaf tuning machine heads in a vintage open-geared design, which hold tuning well and are easy to adjust. Chrome-plated bridge hardware completes the setup and keeps string spacing steady. The scale length measures 860mm, a comfortable standard for most players moving up from a first instrument.
This is a versatile bass that suits practice, rehearsal and gigs alike. All woods used are from sustainable sources, so you can play knowing the materials are responsibly managed. The body measures 1120 x 340 x 70mm and the instrument weighs 4.15kg, a manageable load for longer sessions. Whether you call it a bass guitar or simply a bass, the CAB41-BK gives you a dependable base to build your playing on, with the black finish keeping the look plain and understated.
