This bass has been babied and shows almost no sign of wear, other than some very minor evidence of light swirl\/scratching on the clear coat around the volume\/tone knobs. Comes with original gig bag. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe John Taylor Signature model follows the formula of the limited edition Rio Dream Bass, barring a few design tweaks and the Metallic Black, Primrose and Seafoam Green finishes, as well as a new 5-string variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn top of stunning looks and flawless construction, each bass offers wonderful playability and tones that display a rare clarity and refinement. “John’s bass playing with Duran Duran really imprinted on me how a bass should fit into a band mix,” says Sheldon Dingwall. “His basslines have always had a special combination of energy and elegance.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"n_spec_title\"\u003eBODY \u0026amp; NECK\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich_text w-richtext\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the Rio Dream Bass, the JT Signature has been configured to Taylor’s own personal specifications. “It all started when I was in Toronto about five years ago,” says Taylor. “A friend showed me a Dingwall bass on his phone. I loved how it looked and immediately said to my tech, ‘You’ve got to reach out to these guys!’”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs well as the ‘Rio Eye’ inlaid at the 12th fret, other specs include a lightweight Nyatoh body, a bolt-on Maple neck and a Pau Ferro multi-scale fingerboard. The headstock sports a “Rio-inspired” graphic which complements the body stripes, designed by longtime Duran Duran collaborator, Patty Palazzo. The customary Dingwall fanned-fret system facilitates the most appropriate scale length for each individual string. It’s a concept that’s applied across the entire Dingwall range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“This arrangement varies the strings’ scale length, meaning that the low B string benefits from maximum tension and feels great to play, with none of the dull-sounding flopping around that you get from a regular-scale 5-string.” Bass Player Magazine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"n_spec_title\"\u003ePICKUPS \u0026amp; ELECTRONICS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich_text w-richtext\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe three Dingwall neodymium pickups are wired to a Quad-Tone pickup selector, a master volume, master tone and a 2-band active EQ that’s powered by a top-quality Rupert Neve Designs preamp. “Duran’s breakthrough single, the title track from 1982’s Rio, was originally recorded on a Neve console, so the history was already there,” says Sheldon. “But the team at Rupert Neve Designs absolutely nailed the tone.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe master tone control will serve perfectly well if you’re in passive mode, but if you’re interested in Taylor’s tones you’ll stay in active mode, where the two-band boost and cut gives you an abundance of sonic options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"n_spec_title\"\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rich_text w-richtext\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"s9\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003eThe\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003eJT Signature\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis fitted with an equally impressive accompaniment of hardware, including lightweight tuners and Dingwall\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s8\"\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003es\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s8\"\u003e‘\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003eMinimalist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s8\"\u003e’\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003ebridge.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eO\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003ence you discover that the magnetic battery cover on the rear flips on and off with zero effort, you\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003ell wonder how you ever had the patience to unscrew the compartment cover on your o\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003eld\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003einstruments\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s7\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"s3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e“\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eW\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003ee\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eve been Dingwall fans since day one.
