Get the true extended low end range of a 5-string bass with the same feel as a 4-string bass. ESP's totally cool neck-thru-body DF404 is tuned B-E-A-D, like the lower 4 strings of a 5-string bass. You get the best of both worlds with absolutely no sacrifice in your playing style. And to drive all this low end, the DF404 is loaded with EMG 35-DC active pickups and EMG's B64 active 3-band EQ. Other features include a mahogany body, a maple-walnut neck with a rosewood fingerboard, an insane Tribal graphic inlay and 24 extra jumbo frets. The DF404's hardware is cosmo black.
5-piece Maple/Walnut Neck
This neck design provides a very solid feel and an improved transfer of tone from the neck to the body. Increased neck stability and performance will man less frequent truss rod adjustments
Double Action Truss Rods
All ESP/LTD guitars and basses feature a 'double-action' truss rod design. Unlike a normal (single) truss rod, this one is adjustable in two different directions. This means that you'll never run into a situation where the neck has 'run out of adjustment'. Regardless of which ESP model you choose, you'll get years and years of playing enjoyment.
EMG-HZ Pickups
Each EMG-HZ bass pickup is created for its unique sound quality and includes features from over 25 years of EMG's design experience. Players all over the world agree that EMG is the leading authority in pickup technology. EMG-HZ: advancing the art of the passive pickup.
