Precision, Simplicity, and Stability
The Roasted Saint Soap emphasizes quality materials and a stripped-down configuration for pure sonic focus.
The Single Pickup Statement
- The Soapbar Clarity: At the heart of this bass with soapbar pickup lies a hand-wound Alnico soap bar. This single pickup delivers a commanding, all-passive voice that is both versatile and powerful. The result is a classic tone bass guitar that sits perfectly in the mix, with warm lows and clear, articulate highs.
- Focused Simplicity: The single pickup configuration promotes focus and minimizes signal chain complexity, allowing the player to concentrate on technique and groove.
- All-Passive Control: The high-quality CTS-style pots provide precise control over your tone, offering smooth, responsive volume and tone shaping.
Premium Build and Stability
- Roasted Maple Bass Neck: The neck and fretboard are crafted from thermally treated roasted maple. This process significantly enhances the wood's stability, making it highly resistant to temperature and humidity changes—a critical feature for any reliable 34 inch scale bass. The treatment also contributes to the instrument’s resonance and striking vintage aesthetic.
- Classic 34-Inch Scale: Built to the traditional 34'' scale bass length with 20 frets, the Saint Soap offers the familiar tension, feel, and powerful fundamental tone expected by most professional players.
- Balanced Construction: The resonant Poplar body ensures the instrument is lightweight and comfortable for extended playing sessions.
Aesthetic Appeal
Available in distinctive, vintage-inspired finishes like Ice Blue and Shell Pink, complemented by a matching headstock, the Roasted Saint Soap has a clean, professional aesthetic ready for any stage.
