ESP LTD B-55 BLK 5-string electric bass guitar black

General

With the LTD B-55 BLK (Black), LTD prove that the amateur bass player doesn't have to overspend to purchase a quality guitar with plenty of functions. This excellent-sounding bass guitar has five strings, the four standard ones and a fifth (low B) string, which always comes in handy, no matter what type of music you play - but especially heavy metal players will definitely be able to appreciate the extra depth. What's more, the LTD B-55 has a slender neck and extra large frets for smooth playing.

The pickups of the LTD B55

On the body of the LTD B55 BLK bass guitar there are two pickups, a single-coil at the bridge with a traditionally bright sound and a split single-coil in the neck position that produces a humbucker-like tone: full and powerful and above all, free of hum. You can use the two volume controls and the tone control to fine-tune the sound and the active tone circuit to emphasise basses or trebles.
