\"Zon<\/p>\n

Meshuggah\u2019s Dick Lovgren<\/strong> has gotten a crazy new bass from Zon Guitars, and it\u2019s our bass of the week. The one-of-a-kind Zemi Acoustik is based on Zon\u2019s Sonus body style but has a thicker, hollow mahogany body with a stunning flame maple top. Its set neck is made of a composite, while the phenowood fingerboard holds 24 frets. <\/p>\n

The pickups include a Graph-tech \u201cGhost\u201d piezo system in the bridge saddles along with a hand-wound Bartolini single coil pickup in the neck position. Bartolini also created a 3-band preamp that\u2019s adjustable via recessed trim pots on the body\u2019s side. Each pickup has its own EQ controls, which are summed together for the output. Volume controls are found on the bass\u2019s upper horn. <\/p>\n
