Providence aRB-108M5 NAT Electric 5String Bass w/Vitalizer Bass Preamp

Description

Innovative 5 String bass that adaptstoday’s many different musical styles.

Under the theme we pursued many years, “Fighting Power”, we achieved the concept of high playability with 5 string bass’character. The aRB-108M5.

Reviewing the bass from scratch including cavity and woods.

aRB-108M5
Loaded with the preamp VP-B1 with Vitalizer-B. The toggle switch enables to select Passive and Active. We've questioned about the traditional electric works and reviewed it for better performance. The noise level has decreased after shielding pickups' poll piece, changing wiring and more.Also, We've used original pot for active EQ control that is not usually used musical instruments while minimizing the gap of audibility and sense of touch. By improving the electronics in the cavity, we succeeded to have smooth usability with great sound and less likely to be affected by noise.

The Vitalizer Bass Preamp VP-B1 is a miniaturized version of our bass preamp pedal, DBS-1 with the Vitalizer-B1 circuit to be used as an on-board bass preamp.It provides clean, minimized distortion with wide range output, and the noise level is less than -100dbu even when it’s ran with 9VDC.

The original pickups eXpresso II and its hardware
This bass is loaded with our original espresso II exII-511 pickup and exII-531. These are produced by Shozo Shimura and developed with Minoru Kariya at Kariya-Pickups. These pickups’ magnet are Alnico 5, and by changing the number of winding for neck and bridge pickup, it gives powerful yet well balanced sound. GOTOH GB528 are used for pegs for accurate tuning, and brass made HIPSHOT A-Style is used on bridge for better sound quality.

Shozo Shimura’s special method to choose woods and Asuka’s high technological strength.
We aim to achieve that the players get to focus on performance without any stress.The natural lined 2 piece Ash body reduces awkwardness of playing and Shimura’s special method of choosing wood with Asuka’s experience create the neck that stays stable and good sounding body.
