Description
Though the impact of the electric guitar is obvious, the significance of the electric bass is just as influential in the creation of modern popular music. Eschewing the traditional stand up bass in favor of the electric enabled groups to perform in larger venues, to bigger audiences, and was the last step in truly electrifying music. PB Models honor the tradition and feel of these trailblazers.
Sharing virtually all specs with the PB52, the PB55 adds contours to the front and back for improved comfort, and a 1-ply White pickguard.
