Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 4005V is a right-handed, four-string semi-hollow bass with a maple body, f-holes, and two Toaster Top single-coil pickups. Its maple neck carries a 10-inch-radius Caribbean rosewood fingerboard with 20 frets, giving you a defined playing surface for position changes and chord work. A 3-way blade switch, individual volume and tone controls, and a blend control provide pickup-management options. It is finished in Natural and includes a vintage reissue hardshell case.
