The Korena take
The black GV5 Gloxy Val MP is a right-handed, five-string electric bass built around a 34-inch scale, 20 frets, basswood body, and maple neck and fingerboard. A Comfort C neck and bolt-on construction define the instrument’s listed layout. The Markbass JJ-style MB Instrument PRE supplies 9V active-passive operation, with controls for substantial EQ boost or cut without clipping or distortion. Its supplied MB Bass Bag Universal provides a purpose-made option for carrying and protecting the bass.
