CB00934

It’s a signature instrument for Pino Palladino, inspired by his 1979 fretless StingRay that helped define his sound.

Key specs:

Body: Poplar in a “’79 Burst” high-gloss polyester finish.

Neck: Maple with a dark orange tint, rosewood fingerboard, 34″ scale length.

Unique asymmetric neck carve (V-shape on the bass side blending to a C shape on the treble side) for enhanced comfort.

Electronics: A late-’70s-voiced humbucker pickup (shorter pole pieces) + a 2-band active preamp (with a 500 k treble pot rather than the more common 1-MΩ) to replicate Pino’s aged circuit tone.

Other touches: Brass saddles, GraphTech NuBone hand-shaped nut (1.686″ width) matching Pino’s original setup.
