With its elegant and understated form, the Europa bass is the type of instrument you return to again and again, and each time you're reminded of why you fell in love with this bass in the first place. From the moment you wear it on strap, comfort and balance greet you. Plugging into the side mounted jack gives a satifying "kerchunk" thanks to the long frame jack (much higher quality compared to a standard barrel type connector). Once your amp warms up, the tone that piqued your interest in the first place comes flowing back. This bass is home.
Quick tone change swithces give instant access to useful on-the-fly sounds. When you're ready to take that solo, you can simply flick the bass and treble switches to the boost position, knowing full well that when you're finished, that original sound is just a click away.
The Europa comes standard with Alembic's classic Maple and Purpleheart neck lamination pattern. This engineered beam supports even response across the Ebony fingerboard, and assures that snappy Alembic brilliance will be delivered at every note.
