The super-thin bolt-on maple Charvel speed neck is crafted in the original style, with a gorgeous caramelized treatment, graphite reinforcement and heel-mount truss rod wheel for easy adjustment. The sleek alder body shape is a familiar one-straight from the original Charvel San Dimas basses of late 1970s, with the deeper cutaway that gave adventurous bassists effortless upper-register access. These should be on all basses in my humble opinion.įactory Info and Specs (however, ignore the preamp spec as she now has a Darkglass Tone Capsule preamp).Ĭharvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass PJ IV Caramelized Maple Fingerboard Lime Green Metallicįor the seasoned player who defies the status quo and demands more from a high-performance hot rod bass, the brand-new Charvel® Pro-Mod San Dimas® Bass PJ IV does it all by combining modern appointments with throwback Charvel DNA. Love the fact that she also has Luminlay side fret markers (glow in the dark). It's a common issue with basses and in this case, purely cosmetic I assure you. I pulled the neck and these are ONLY in the clear coat and don't extend into the wood. Somewhere in her journey, she developed a couple of very fine clear coat finish cracks at the neck pocket (body). even taper, very fast), the fret work is simply stellar! Neck is dead-straight, fret are level and action can be slammed down WAY low without any significant buzzing (it's set stupid low right now). Other notes, the neck is absolutely incredible! In addition to the look and feel (satin finish.
Thanks to LowEndLobster for pointing that out. He also copper shielded and grounded everything, which fixed all of the shortcomings of these as they are from the factory.Įdit/Update.the upgraded Darkglass Tone Capsule 3-band preamp in this bass also has an active/passive switch via the push/pull volume knob. I'll post the last one here in which he replaced the factory (trash) preamp with a Darkglass Tone Capsule preamp. Bought this gem from our very own LowEndLobster! He did 2 or 3 reviews on this particular bass.
