MTD Kingston Super 5 5-String Bass - Matte Black

Powerful electronics, premium finishes, and a sleek carved body, make the Kingston Super the perfect combination of beauty, brawn, and tonal flexibility.

In addition to a 3-band active preamp, the Kingston Super sports a mini-switch for each MM-style pickup. While in the down position, the pickups are in humcancelling series mode, providing a bold punch and growl. In the middle position, the pickups are in single coil mode, making them sound bright and twangy. In the up position, the pickups are in humcancelling parallel mode, making them sound bright and sweet, with a slightly lower output than series mode. When both pickups are in single coil mode and the blend pot is centered, they are humcancelling. How’s that, for some ear candy?
