    MTD Kingston Super 5 5-String Bass Guitar Laurel Fretboard Features:

    • Powerful tone that won’t get lost in the mix
    • Ash body with a Maple neck & Indian Laurel fretboard
    • Asymmetrical neck shape with Carbon Fiber Reinforcement
    • Compound 10" - 14" fretboard radius
    • 2 MTD MM-style Humbucking pickups
    • 3-Way Toggle Switch for both pickups
      • Series Mode: bold punch and aggressive growl
      • Single Coil Mode: brighter and sweeter
      • Parallel Mode: smoother, slightly lower output
    • Hum-cancelling when both pickups in Single Coil Mode & blend pot is in center position
    • Active EQ with 6db of boost/cut for each frequency band
    • Buzz Feiten Tuning System for precise intonation

     

    The Super features our signature asymmetrical neck and compound fingerboard radius, which allows the player hours of comfortable, fatigue free playing. The Buzz Feiten Tuning System provides precise intonation up and down the fretboard. The robust, top-loading, Quick Release Bridge allows for speedy and easy string changes, while the Licensed Hipshot Ultralite Tuners provide confidence without neck dive.

     

    The active EQ of the Super features +/- 6 dB of boost/cut for each of the three specially selected frequency points, like the rest of the Kingston models. However, the Super also sports a 3-way mini toggle for each of its MM style pickups. In the down position, the pickup is in Series Mode, providing a bold punch and aggressive growl. In the middle position, the pickup is in Single Coil Mode, which will make each one sound brighter and sweeter. In the up position, the pickup is in Parallel Mode, providing slightly lower output than Series Mode. When both pickups are in Single Coil Mode and the blend pot is in the center position, the pickups are hum-cancelling.

     

    With all these premium appointments, flexible electronics and finishes to match, we think the Super is just that - super!
