The ESP D-5 Neck thru bass guitar is loaded with pro appointments making it an incredible value. The ESP D-5 has a full 34-inch scale for a deep, round sound difficult to find in instruments of this price. Its ultra thin u-shape 5-piece neck with a fingerboard, built into a Merbau body, makes for a very solid feel. The bridge is the ESP BB-605 with String-Thru-Body. Electronics include a set of ESP SB-5 pickups; and Volume and Balance controls, plus ESP's ABQ3 3-Band Active EQ. There's a lot of tone and fantastic ESP playability built into this bass.
