The Hungarian company was created by brothers Attila, Csaba, and Arpad Benedek who didn\u2019t have access to the guitars they wanted when they were younger and Hungary was behind the iron curtain. The brothers decided to build their own, and continually working to improve their own instruments led them to start building for others. <\/p>\n<p>The Globe Bass comes in bolt-on or neck-through styles. Both versions can be built with either alder or ash bodies, but the bolt-on features a maple neck, while the neck-through has a laminated maple and padouk neck. Each also has the option for either a rosewood or padouk fingerboard.<\/p>\n<p>Fibenare fits the Globe with their Vazul pickups with matching wood pickup covers. The Vazul has an alnico V magnet and is described as having a classic bass sound with \u201cmoderate attack and lots of harmonics.\u201d They\u2019re controlled with a pair of switches to put either pickup into series, parallel, or coiltap modes. Other controls include a volume pot with push\/pull functionality to toggle active and passive circuits, a blend pot, and a 3-band EQ.<\/p>\n<h2>Fibenare Guitars Globe Bass Photos:<\/h2>\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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Front-Back.jpg?fit=600%2C350&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Neckthru-Front-Back.jpg?fit=600%2C350&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"img-fluid\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- .carousel-item --><\/p>\n<div class=\"carousel-item\"><\/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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Back-of-Neck.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Bolt-Back.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Bolt.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Spalted-Maple.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Electronics.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Thru-Front.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Quilt.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Thru-Back.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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\/2014\/03\/Fibenare-Guitars-Globe-Bass-Headstock.jpg?fit=800%2C533&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 --><\/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 --><\/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 --><\/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>This week we check out the Globe Bass from the bass builders at Fibernare.
