Fusion bassist Bunny Brunel teamed up with ESP Guitars to unveil a new signature line at the 2015 Winter NAMM Show. The basses comes in two models: the BB-1004/QM, which is a four-string with a See-Thru Black Sunburst, and the BB-1005FL/QM, a fretless five-string with a Burnt Orange finish.
Both editions carry many of the same features, including an alder body
topped with quilted maple, a maple neck, and an ebony fingerboard.
Besides frets, the main difference in the basses lies in the neck
profile. Where the four-string has a “C”-shape, the five-string has an
asymmetric neck profile.
The basses are both fitted with an Aguilar MM-style pickup in the
bridge position and a hum canceling J-pickup in the neck position.
Electronics include an Aguilar OBP-3 preamp, while the hardware consists
of a Hipshot bridge and tuners with an Xtender on the lowest string.
The
ESP Guitars Bunny Brunel BB-1004/QM and BB-1005FL/QM basses will be
shipping soon with price points of $1,299 and $1,399, respectively.
