Charvel Frank Bello Signature Pro-Mod So-Cal Bass PJ IV, Gloss Black Overview
Frank Bello, the hard-hitting bassist for thrash metal legends Anthrax and New York alternative favourites Helmet, is known for his dynamic, energetic stage presence and inventive bass style.
Primed to thrash, the Frank Bello Signature Pro-Mod So-Cal Bass PJ IV features a poplar body paired to a bolt-on maple neck with rock-solid graphite-reinforcement rods to withstand extreme climate changes, a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel for pain-free neck relief tweaks. Engineered to deliver unrivalled playability, the 12”-16” compound radius maple fingerboard with rolled edges and 20 jumbo frets allows for effortlessly fast playing and comfortable chording and bending.
A set of EMG Frank Bello Signature P/J pickups serves up warmth and low-end punch, along with tight mids and dynamic high-end. The no-nonsense control layout consists of individual volume knobs for the bridge and middle pickups.
A Charvel HiMass bridge, Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut and open-gear tuners combine for stellar tuning stability with improved note punch and sustain.
This head-turning signature bass is cloaked in Gloss Black and comes with a mirror pickguard, black block fingerboard inlays and chrome hardware.
