The Charvel Frank Bello Signature Pro-Mod So-Cal Bass PJ IV is primed to thrash in a sleek, eye-catching design. Frank Bello is the hard-hitting bassist for thrash metal legends Anthrax and New York alternative favorites Helmet, and is known for his dynamic, energetic stage presence and inventive bass style. The Frank Bello Signature features a poplar body paired to a bolt-on maple neck with rock-solid graphite-reinforcement rods to withstand extreme climate changes, and a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel for pain-free neck relief tweaks.
Engineered to deliver unrivaled playability, the 12"-16" compound radius maple fingerboard with rolled edges and 20 jumbo frets allows for effortless speed, as well as 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.
