Whether you're laying down tight grooves or melodic basslines, the Grainger 4 delivers the pristine articulation and dynamic response required for any genre.
Premium 10-Top Flame Maple With Mahogany Body
At the heart of the Grainger 4's refined tonal palette is its stunning 10-Top flame maple, a designation reserved for PRS's most visually striking figured maple tops. In order to receive 10-Top status, the wood must have clearly defined figuring across the entire top—making this bass an extra-special entry in the PRS lineup. This premium flame maple is matched with a solid mahogany body, providing the perfect balance of brightness, sustain and midrange warmth. The sleek, contoured edges and ergonomic shape ensure effortless playability, whether sitting in a session or holding down the groove on stage.
Grainger Carve Maple Neck for Superior Playability
Crafted for both precision and comfort, the Grainger 4 10-Top bass guitar features a maple neck with PRS's exclusive Grainger carve—a profile developed with Gary Grainger himself to provide superior control and fluid playability. It's perfect for fluid lines up the neck or holding down heavy low-register riffs. The rosewood fingerboard, adorned with classic PRS bird inlays, offers a smooth playing surface, enhancing both sustain and tonal warmth. Whether executing fast runs or complex chordal work, this neck is built for the demands of serious bassists.
