Description
This is the bass Megadeth’s David Ellefson built for relentless, high-velocity playing, and it shows in every detail. The poplar body isn’t just resonant—its upper contour gives your pick or plucking hand a stable perch for aggressive attack, while the lower contour settles naturally against your leg when you’re propped on a knee between sets. It’s a body shape designed by someone who’s actually played fast metal for a living.
Speed is the whole point of the neck. A graphite-reinforced, bolt-on quartersawn maple neck stays rock-stable even when you’re digging in hard, refusing to twist or shift under aggressive technique. The maple fingerboard runs a 12-16 compound radius, starting rounder near the nut for comfortable chording and flattening out as you climb toward the upper frets—exactly where you need that flat surface for shred-speed runs and bends without fretting out.
Dial-in is fast too: the truss rod thumbwheel sits right at the heel, so neck adjustments happen in seconds, not in a workshop with a full set of tools. For bassists who need low end that can keep pace with blast beats and still lock into a pocket, this Snow White CBXM IV is built to answer the call.
