Jamie MallenderBlack Label Esprit I Bass
The Fret-King Black Label Esprit I bass, with its balanced, asymmetric styling, distinctive 4-in-line peghead and signature pickguard, is familiar, radical, and comfortable on the eye.
Superbly balanced, the Esprit I bass is a delight to wear and play standing or sitting. The long tenon set-neck construction, combining three-piece agathis bodies to fastplaying maple necks with rosewood fingerboards, and a Wilkinson WBBC bridge with cold rolled steel baseplate and brass barrel saddles directly fitted to the body for maximum tone, all creates a solid platform for you to build your Esprit I bass’s tone and a great groove.
Talking of tone, the Esprit I is fitted with Fret-King’s distinctive WJM humbucker. Many pickups in one, this Wilkinson masterpiece is a profound and powerful pickup which will hold its own in every musical style.
