The original design of the Capricorn bass combines classic elements with modern appointments to appeal to players who appreciate vintage style but want a bass that sets them apart from the rest.
The Badwater Capricorn Bass (AJ-820) has an offset Alder body, a maple neck and a rosewood fretboard. The industry-standard 34” scale length helps insure excellent tone and intonation. The two single-coil EMG-designed Alnico pickups provide round low end with midrange punch.
Independent volume controls for each pickup allow players to dial in a range of tones from warm and fat to crisp and aggressive. The antiqued 2-piece pickguard is reminiscent of classic designs, but adds a subtle modern edge, and the vintage-style bridge and elephant ear tuners complete the vibe of a bass that bridges the gap between vintage and modern.
The Badwater Capricorn Bass is available in crackle brown/white, antique brown & off-white finishes.
