Essence, Spirit & Purpose
CONTROL TOP
The pickups are single coil, with the center pickup cancelling hum from the neck and bridge coils. Controls are a stacked volume and passive treble roll-off, and the infinite blend control. The center coil is always active. The blend control combines the center pickup with either the bridge or neck pickup, or an infinite combination of the three of them.
HEEL
Fit and finish are paramount. The neck is fit precisely into it’s pocket. and affixed absolutely securely, delivering tone that rivals neck-through construction.
The neck is three-lam maple, and the body is alder. Stock colors are transparent red or black french polish. Headstock, fretboard, pickup covers and cavity cover are black phenolic.
INPUT JACK
The input jack is inset into the back, bottom edge of the bass’ body. The inset provides enough depth that traditional 1/4” connectors rest completely inside the Quake’s silhouette.
