NYC Custom 24 Fret
24 fret models are designed for the player needing a full two octave range on their bass. Our original version features dual soapbar pickups located closer to the bridge for a tighter, punchier, more modern sound. This remains our most popular configuration and is available in standard style only. It is also our favorite configuration for fretless basses.
24 fret models are now available in all pickup configurations. Modern soapbar locations are only available in standard style.
