Electric bass with great playability and powerful sounds
With the Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass PJ V CM Metallic Black, the traditional Hard'n'Heavy Company from California sends a hot-rodded P-bass with five strings into the race, which knows how to convince with great playability and powerful sounds. While an alder body and a caramelized maple neck form the basis of the bass guitar, a PJ pickup setup ensures a multi-faceted sound. Indestructible Hardware in the form of a HiMass bridge and tuning stable Open-Gear tuners completes the Pro-Mod San Dimas Bas PJ V CM Metallic Black from Charvel.
A five-string hot-rodded electric bass, the Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass PJ V CM Metallic Black combines classic style with agile playing characteristics and fierce bass tones.
The comfortable "Slim C" neck made of caramelized maple and the alder body of the Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass PJ V are bolted together.
Caramelized Maple Neck and Alder Body.
Under the black metallic finish, the Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass hides an alder body that, thanks to the traditional lines, fits the player with the usual comfort. A haptic highlight is the bolt-on neck made of caramelized maple, which promises particularly smooth playing characteristics thanks to the "Slim C" profile with satin finish and rounded fingerboard edges. To ensure that every note can be safely grasped even on dark stages, fluorescent Luminlay side dots mark the positions between the 20 frets in addition to the classic dot inlays.
A Charvel split-coil and a DiMarzio Area J pickup together with the active 3-band EQ provide versatile bass sounds.
Bass pickups from Charvel and DiMarzio.
The electric tone conversion of the Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass PJ is handled by a classic PJ setup with pickups from Charvel and DiMarzio. While the Charvel 5-string P split coil in middle position delivers a punchy tone with rich low-mid growl, the DiMarzio Area J single coil at the bridge provides a wiry sound with balanced representation of all frequency ranges. Even the low B-string is integrated into the sound with tight precision. The musically tuned, active 3-band tone control of the electric bass guitar also allows the precise adjustment of the timbre.
Charvel open-gear bass machine heads keep the Pro-Mod San Dimas PJ 5-string bass securely in tune.
Indestructible hardware
Last but not least, optimally matched attachments complete Charvel's Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass PJ V CM Metallic Black. The extremely sturdily built Charvel HiMass bridge not only supports the bass guitar's vibrant sound character and even Sustain, with five individually adjustable string riders it also guarantees precise adjustment of intonation and string action. On the traditionally designed "4+1" headstock, open-gear tuners also ensure precise tuning with lasting stability.
