The short-scale headless design was commissioned by a customer who wanted to blend a traditional look with modern features. <\/p>\n<p>Rogers crafted the bass with a mahogany body topped with a gorgeous piece of walnut. Its nine-piece neck is a laminate of mahogany and maple with an ebony fretboard. The hardware includes the Nova Guitar Parts headless system by Andre Passini in Brazil, which the luthier calls \u201can excellent \u2018great bang for the buck\u2019 system.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Another important aspect of the bass is its triple-threat of Sims Super-Quad pickups. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cEach Super-Quad can switch, with SimS patented Tri-Logic switching system, between a split-coil, single-coil, and full humbucker.  And some clever wizardry in the switch means there is no volume change between the options!\u201d Rogers explains. \u201cThe choice of configuration is indicated by a red, blue, or green LED, although the pickups themselves are fully passive. \u201cAnd this bass, as far as we or SimS know, is the first one in the world with THREE of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"carousel-sync-wrap\">\n<div class=\"carousel-gallery carousel-sync-main\">\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/AJRGuitar-Mods-Swift-Triple-Bass-Body-1000x667.jpg\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/AJRGuitar-Mods-Swift-Triple-Bass-Body-Angle.jpg?fit=746%2C498&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/AJRGuitar-Mods-Swift-Triple-Bass-Tuners.jpg?fit=750%2C500&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.notreble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/AJRGuitar-Mods-Swift-Triple-Bass-Back.jpg?fit=751%2C501&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item -->\n\t\t    <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-main -->    <\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-sync-nav\">\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item -->\n\t\t    <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-nav -->  <\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-sync-wrap --><\/div>\n<p><!-- .section --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andy Rogers of AJRGuitar Mods has shared another incredible build with us called the Swift Triple.
