Product Fundamentals
- Quality tonewoods Reassuringly weighted and dynamic Basswood is an excellent tonewood that makes the Select suitable for a broad range of musical styles. Thanks to its medium weight build it offers exceptional volume and tone making it a great choice for both rhythm and lead performance styles. The Chicago Selects roasted maple neck and fretboard allows the bass to effortlessly cut through and ground the densest of arrangements. Providing great resistance to temperature change and humidity the Select offers a tight bass response fantastic sustain and incredible levels of attack. The inclusion of these hand-selected tonewoods make the Chicago Select the perfect choice for those with expansive rigs who regularly incorporate distortion pedals and strive for a tone that makes a punch. This is reinforced via the inclusion of a bolt on neck ensuring even more brightness to compete against walls of guitars. High spec components Each component on the Chicago Select has been chosen by our team of specialists to guarantee an unparalleled playing experience. The bass features a single saddle bridge system. Unlike traditional saddles the Chicago Selects are not physically attached to one another. Thanks to this each string will possess its own bridge minimising the risk of "mud" and sympathetic resonance so that each bass line and chord sounds clear and defined. This will prove particularly useful due to the Selects five-string design guaranteeing total control without compromise Incredibly versatile. The inclusion of a split-coil humbucking bass pickup grants you instant access to punchy powerful and articulate bass tones. Compared to covered open coil pickups offer greater clarity and definition and minimise the risk of feedback when in close proximity to high-powered amplifiers. Whats more the linear humbucking pickup provides a variety of tones allowing the bass to grow with you as your style and technique develops. Effortless to play with maximum aesthetic appeal Thin narrow and rounded. The Chicago Selects C-shaped neck is incredibly smooth allowing you to progress up and down the fretboard with ease. It is ideal for a broad range of musical styles and will suit most players. Not only does this bass sound the part it looks it too. The reverse red burst finish ensures it will seamlessly integrate into any aficionados collection holding its own against basses well above its price point. Accessory pack included To ensure youre ready to hit the ground running the Chicago Select comes complete with a comprehensive accessory pack consisting of a lightweight gigbag strap cable plectrums and Allen keys.
