General
The LTD RB-1004SM Natural is a 4-string electric bass guitar with an exceptionally beautiful natural finish. You can see the gorgeous grain of the Spalted Maple top and Swamp Ash body excellently through the transparent lacquer. It is the combination of these wood types that gives this bass guitar a pleasantly light weight and grants it a sparkling tone, powerful response and more than enough warmth and sustain. Furthermore, this bass guitar is equipped with a slender bolt-on neck, a 2-band EQ and Aguilar P/J pickup configuration.
Smooth neck and great sound
The extra-slender neck of the LTD RB-1004SM Natural allows for amazingly fast playing and the double cutaway grants easy access to even the highest frets. The neck is made of 5-part maple and rosewood for added stability and a solid feel. The fretboard is made of maple and provides a deliciously clear edge to the overall sound. The Aguilar split single-coil at the neck and the single coil in the bridge position are perfectly balanced and provide a full, dynamic sound. You can steplessly adjust the overall volume and pickup distribution. Additionally, you can freely adjust the timbre thanks to the built-in active 2-band EQ, also made by Aguilar.
