Cirrus Bolt-On Bass Guitars Streamlined for Rock Styles
Press Release
Posted 2005-02-15
Peavey proudly announces that it will release two bolt-on versions of its popular, U.S.A.-made Cirrus Series basses.
These four- and five-string bolt-on Cirrus basses feature the same exotic woods, active electronics and attention to detail as neck-through-body Cirrus basses, but with a streamlined design and component set for a straight-forward, rock-oriented bass style that requires strong bolt-on tone.
Firmly rooted in the Cirrus legacy of finely crafted, tonally superior instruments, Cirrus 4 and 5 bolt-on basses feature solid mahogany bodies topped with satin-finished mahogany or bubinga and walnut necks with wenge fingerboards. The smooth, natural playability and expert craftsmanship of the Cirrus Series lives on in these U.S.A.-made instruments.
Peavey's active electronics package includes VFL™ pickups and bass, variable mid and treble controls with 10 dB boost and cut, while the hardware set features durable, low-profile Hipshot™ tuning keys and Peavey's Dual-Compression™ bridge for strong string presence and sustain.
