The Powerline is an exceptional bass with truly distinctive looks. The design of this custom bass guitar from the Netherlands is characterized by its single cutaway. This construction is chosen to create a large contact surface between neck and body. This allows for optimal energetic transmission of the string vibration, resulting in tight and dominant lows. Therefore, the low B of our Powerline basses sounds remarkably well-defined and tight.<\/p>\n

The Powerline is designed for optimal playing comfort. The transition between neck and body is smoothly designed, making the higher neck positions extremely comfortable to play. Furthermore, the bass has an asymmetrical neck profile as standard, i.e. thicker under the B string and thinner under the G string. This ergonomic design makes the neck particularly comfortable to hold.<\/p>\n

We prefer to build the Powerline with a glued neck. This construction delivers the full, compressed sound character of a continuous neck with the typical transparent high end of a bolt-on. If desired, the Powerline is also available with a continuous or screwed neck.<\/p>\n
