The GSR206SM pairs a striking spalted maple top in Natural Grey Burst with a capable 6-string bass platform underneath. Each spalted maple top has unique, organic grain patterns that make every bass one of a kind -- it is a visual touch that adds real character to an already interesting instrument. The mahogany body keeps the tone warm and musical across all six strings.

Powersound humbucking pickups with Phat II active bass boost give you enough output and low-end authority to make extended-range playing feel full and defined. The slim neck manages the extra width well, keeping things playable for both experienced 6-string players and curious bassists exploring the format for the first time. If you want to dip into the world of 6-string bass without a major financial commitment, the GSR206SM makes a compelling case.
