The Story
I got a tip to check out CG Lutherie, a French bass builder, and I’m glad I did. The company’s Sequel bass is an interesting take on a hollow body with multiple sound holes on the bass side of the instrument.
This 5-string fretless Sequel is built with a black limba body a neck of garapa and rosewood. It’s tied together with an ebony fingerboard, bridge, and tailpiece. The fingerboard has an extended section that runs along the B-string to act as a built-in thumb rest. The only metal hardware is a set of Hipshot Ultralight tuners.
CG Lutherie rounds the Sequel out with an active piezo pickup and preamp with bass, mid, and treble controls.
