Brown Sugar
As back and sides of the IQ Acoustic Bass are made of maple, which is kept almost natural in color, this time it was embrowned on customer request with a very impressive result. Usually the top is made of Sitka Spruce. With this Acoustic Bass we made use of Douglas Fir.
The principle of our IQ basses is a fingerboard with fanned frets, which has been mirrored for the left-handed version. The 5-string version comes with an additional low b-string.
Sound
To match the exterior appearance, the sound of this IQ-Bass is a bit darker too. This is caused by the Douglas Fir top, which also provides a stronger presence. The built in L. R. Baggs element pickup amplifies the sound very naturally.
