Artisan Bass Works looks at things from a different angle. The Ohio-based company licenses ANSIR Technology, which is a patented neck design that puts the fretboard into a more natural playing position. ABW puts the design to use on their Classic Series to add their own touch to common bass styles. <\/p>\n

\"Artisan<\/p>\n

The Artisan Bass Works Classic basses are available in fretted or fretless versions and several pickup configurations: J\/J, P\/J, Reverse P\/J, and J\/MM. They are built with solid alder bodies, maple necks, and a choice of maple or rosewood for the fretboard. Hardware includes a Hipshot bridge, Hipshot tuners, and a Graph Tech TUSQ nut. <\/p>\n

The basses come in four finish options: Natural, Black dye, Nova blue metallic, or Tri-Color Traditional Burst.<\/p>\n
