Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built as a four-string concert bass for modern metal work, the CB1A combines a single Fishman Fluence Modern bass humbucker with unusually broad onboard control. The push/pull master volume changes between humbucker and single-coil modes; a stacked two-band EQ handles bass and treble, while the mini toggle provides three voicings. A neck-through poplar body and graphite-reinforced three-piece maple neck carry a 34-inch scale. Its ebony board runs from a 12-inch to 16-inch compound radius, with 24 jumbo stainless-steel frets and Luminlay side dots for dark stages.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Metal bass parts that need deep low-register riffs alongside defined, intricate passages.
  • Stage work where Luminlay side dots help locate the fingerboard in low light.
  • Studio or rehearsal tone shaping using three voicings and onboard bass-and-treble EQ.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players who require more than four strings.
  • Players seeking multiple onboard pickup positions; this bass uses one humbucker.
