Mayones Comodous Classic 6, 6-String Bass, Liquid Black Raw

Music Store Live is proud to be an official Mayones dealer. If you haven't checked these guys out yet, you're in for a real treat! This one comes in a super cool liquid black raw finish that leaves the natural pores of the wood exposed and really allows the wood to breathe.

Dressed with looks to kill and armed with electronics that'll really thump, this Comodous is classy, yet thoroughly badass. The Aguilar humbuckers are overwound and powerful for a bass tone that cuts through the mix a bit more. They pump out loads of mid-range goodness while keeping the bass response tight and focused and still providing plenty of treble. Whether you're playing heavy rock with a pick or laying down a groove fingerstyle, or putting your thumb to the bass for some slap action, this bass has enough versatility that it can cover many genres. This is great for the bassist who wants others to actually take note of the bass tone and doesn't want to be buried under the mix.

With an instrument like this, bass players are able to be a lot more than simply the guys that make the low and rumbly notes in the background. You'll have all the articulation and definition you could ever need. They've achieved a tight and punchy B-string without having to extend the scale length. This is particularly good for a 6-string because it means you don't have a C-string that sounds like a whining cat (because of having a scale length that is way too long for that string). While extending the scale length is one way to tighten up that B-string, in our opinion, it sacrifices tone and feel on most of the other strings. This is a killer 6-string that really plays very effortlessly and evenly across the board.

If you want a bass that can cover modern funk, R&B, and soul tones with lots of growl, bite, and articulation, this will be a master of that. But to show off the versatility of the sounds on this, you'll also find this model very popular in heavier rock and metal settings. So whether you're slapping, playing with your fingers, or playing with a pick, using a clean tone, or covering it in distortion, it's really perfect for any bassist looking for a modern hi-fi tone that can be shaped and sculpted.
