Signature tone concept<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Aggressive, tight, and articulate modern metal bass\u2014designed to stay clear in dense guitars and hard-hitting drums.

I focus on:<\/strong>
Fast transient response (pick \/ 3-finger precision)
Controlled low end (tight subs, punchy low-mids)
Clear top-end definition without harshness<\/p>\n\n\n\n
