Overview

With its sculpted and contoured body, the F shape has long been a favorite of players of the heaviest music styles. The 5-string F-1005 is a neck-thru-body design at 35" scale with a seven-piece maple/purple heart neck and a mahogany body with flamed maple top that looks great in See Thru Black Cherry Sunburst finish.

However, the most exciting aspect of the F-1005 is its innovative Fishman Fluence Bass Soapbar pickups that offer multiple voicings with coil splitting via a push-pull volume control, as well as a balance control and 2-band EQ with a 3-way mini switch for voice 1, voice 2 (mid cut), and voice 2 (mid flat). The F-1005 also offers stainless steel frets on a Macassar ebony fingerboard, and has a satin finish on the back of the neck.
