“The Dart II offers a classic passive tone within a full-scale 34-inch package with its custom contoured body and simplified dual single-coil layout,” the company writes. “The bass features a premium ash body, select maple neck, and passive split-coil pickups at the heart of its warm, punchy tonality. Dual volume controls are standard, but there are no tone controls to color the sound; therefore, the tone is manipulated solely by the user’s technique and finesse.”
Other features include a Natural Velvet finish, a custom artist series neckplate, and 22 frets. Hear it in Joe Dart’s hands in the release video from Vulpeck:
The Ernie Ball Music Man Joe Dart II bass is limited to 100 basses for its first run. Each will ship with a limited edition numbered neck plate, a premium G&G case, and a certificate signed by Joe Dart. It’s available now for $2,699.
