{"product_id":"chord-cab42-3-tone-sunburst-bass-guitar","title":"Chord CAB42 3-Tone Sunburst Bass Guitar","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chord CAB42 is a classically styled bass guitar that suits a wide range of playing. The solid basswood body has offset contoured styling for comfort, and gives the instrument a decent weight and good sustain. Two large single coil pickups, each fitted with twinned pole-pieces, sit under the strings and feed a control layout of two volume pots plus a shared master tone. That twin volume setup lets you blend the pickups to find the balance you want, whether you're after a rounded neck tone or a brighter bite from the bridge position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bolt-on maple neck carries an HPL rosewood fingerboard with 21 large frets and a 41mm nut width, on an 865mm scale length. The traditional headstock holds four clover leaf open-geared machine heads, sometimes called vintage-style tuners, which hold tuning well and suit the look of the guitar. Hardware includes a chrome plated bridge. In its 3-tone Sunburst gloss finish, the CAB42 covers everything from jazz to rock, so it works as a first bass or a reliable second instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a right-hand model measuring 345 x 1195 x 60mm and weighing 4.42kg, so it sits comfortably on a strap and feels solid without being heavy. All of the woods used are from sustainable sources. The combination of basswood body, maple neck and dual single coil pickups gives you plenty of tonal ground to cover, and the simple control set keeps things easy to work with while you play. It's a straightforward, honest bass built to be used rather than admired from a stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControls\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 volume, 1 master tone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContoured body, bolt-on neck\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBody\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBasswood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNeck\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaple\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFingerboard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHPL Rosewood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScale length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e865mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePickups\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 single coil (twinned pole-piece)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome plated bridge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTuning machine heads\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLarge clover leaf open geared\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21 large\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNut width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e41mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e345mm x 1195mm x 60mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.42KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrientation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRight-hand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-tone Sunburst Gloss\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat pickups does the CAB42 use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has two large single coil pickups, each with twinned pole-pieces.
