McGrath P-Style Bass, Roasted Flame Maple Fretboard, Lollar Thunderbird Pickups, Celestial Blue
Manufacturer's Description
This P-Style is finished in Celestial Blue, a rare colorway we’ve only produced once before. The body and headstock are hand-painted by Madelyn McGrath, making this instrument a unique, one-of-a-kind work of art.
Key Components
This bass is equipped with two Lollar Thunderbird passive pickups, offering a bold and punchy tonal profile. It features a fully passive circuit with a streamlined control layout consisting of a primary Volume with a push-pull mute function, a second Volume, and a Master Tone. The electronics are rounded out with high-quality CTS pots and an Orange Drop .047uf capacitor for smooth, vintage-inspired frequency roll-off. All hardware, including the Leo Quan Badass bridge and tuning units, is finished in classic Nickel.
Build & Comfort
The solid mahogany body provides excellent resonance and lightweight performance, bringing the total weight of the instrument to a comfortable 8.6 lbs. The neck is crafted from roasted flame maple and features a 1.5-inch J-style nut width, specifically designed for comfort and speed. It sports a 12-inch radius fingerboard equipped with durable stainless steel frets for a modern playing feel. For long-term reliability, the neck is reinforced with carbon fiber rods and features a two-way spoke nut truss rod for effortless adjustments. A matching headstock and a simulated anodized silver pickguard complete this premium package.
McGrath Guitars
Cormac McGrath has been a bassist and luthier for 20 years. Having played thousands of gigs, events and festivals he got to thinking about how to make playing bass the most fun he possibly could. If you spend your weekend loading gear and driving for hours, playing music should be the reward. So many mass produced instruments don't solve the little points of friction that take the joy and flow out of playing music.
He talked to his fellow bassists, he assembled a team / expert research and built his first round of machinery on the kitchen counter. Cormac is passionate about gear but knows it's not meant to collect dust in the corner. If it's easy, you will play more. That is the goal of this company. Some basses are designed to be obsolete, some are designed to hang on the wall, these are MADE TO BE PLAYED!
Our basses are proudly made in San Diego, California, USA.
