\"R.<\/p>\n

After releasing the prototype last year, Ryan Hyde of R. Hyde Guitars has created a new full-sized version of the Nuvo. The sleek and seductive revamp is our bass of the week.<\/p>\n

Hyde built the new Nuvo with a full 34-inch scale and added a few improvements to the design. \u201cThis new version features a fully adjustable bridge,\u201d the luthier explains. \u201cThe body has been scaled up in size and thickness and incorporates a unique heel design. The input jack has also been revised and a second pickup has been added which is housed in a finger ramp.\u201d<\/p>\n

For electronics, Hyde took the passive route with a Nordstrand 51P pickup in the neck and a Big Split for the bridge. It\u2019s control configuration is set up for independent volume knobs and a master tone. Other features include Hipshot tuners, wraparound 2-ply binding, and a wide choice of woods for construction.<\/p>\n

Hyde is offering the bass now as part of his Kickstarter campaign<\/a>. Each bass is hand crafted by the luthier in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n
