Description
The CV-5 takes the classic P/J bass blueprint and quietly upgrades everything under the hood. Its pair of low-noise humbuckers pack a 3-way series/split/parallel mini toggle setup per pickup, so you can dial in anything from a punchy, focused single-coil-style growl to a fuller humbucking roar without ever touching an outboard pedal. That range makes it equally at home laying down deep pocket grooves or cutting through a dense mix with aggressive, modern edge.
Feel-wise, this is a bass that disappears in your hands. The slender “C”-shaped maple neck is carbon fiber reinforced for stability and finished in a satiny feel that’s fast under the fretting hand. Paired with a lightweight ash body that’s been heavily contoured, the CV-5 sits comfortably whether you’re gigging standing up or tracking seated in the studio for hours.
Hardware choices back up the playing feel with real gig durability. The S-Tek bridge uses adjustable steel saddles for solid intonation and sustain, a self-lubricating Tusq XL nut helps keep tuning stable, and a 6-bolt neck joint locks things down tight — no drift, no wobble, night after night on the road.
