This week we\u2019re checking out the Sirius by Aquilina Basses. Available in passive and active versions, the bass has several options to dial it towards a modern tone or take you back in time with old school thump. <\/p>\n

The active version of the bass features an ash body, an American maple neck, and a maple fingerboard with 20 frets. More importantly, Aquilina loads it with a pair of Delano pickups and a Taurus TM2 preamp with Volume, Blend, Treble, and Bass knobs as well as Punch and Presence boost switches.
