\"Anaconda<\/p>\n

This week we\u2019re taking a look at a beautiful model by the UK\u2019s Anaconda Basses. This particular Anaconda Tribute J5E Elite was built for Joe Sam<\/strong>, a pro bass player from London, with a special twist. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s an avid Prince fan and wanted a bass which had certain design cues to pay tribute to the master,\u201d builder Andrew Taylor-Cummings explains. \u201cThe model he chose, was an existing Anaconda model, coincidentally called the Tribute. The body is finished in a stunning Purple Candy burst satin lacquer. For his bass, new features were introduced such as a 24 fret neck, which has a lacquered fingerboard and is oil finished on the back and headstock. The fingerboard has offset Piano style position markers in Ebony.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other features include a swamp ash body, a set of Delano P\/J hum-cancelling pickups, a Glockenklang 3-band preamp, and Hipshot hardware. <\/p>\n
