Open Box ESP LTD B-205SM 5-string Electric Bass Guitar Level 1 Satin See-Thru Black

The ESP LTD B-205SM 5-String Electric Bass Guitar is an affordable yet high-quality bass offers an ash body with a stunning spalted maple top in Satin Natural finish. Built with 5-piece maple for maximum stability, the bolt-on neck is set deep into the body for a combination of snap and sustain. The Thin U-Neck Contour gives fast fingers optimum access to the full 24-fret scale.

Thunderous Tonewoods

The B-205SM gets its focused lows, punchy mids and gnarly bite from distinctive tonewoods. Spalted maple's unique coloration and grain pattern make a great look to stand out. Ash provides a bright, resonant tone with clear note definition. Together they yield a bold and balanced bass tone perfect for any music genre.

Modern Electronics for Sculpting Your Sound

The B-205SM has 5 controls for crafting your ideal bass tone. A balance control blends the SB-5N neck pickup and SB-5B bridge pickup—from full neck to full bridge. Bass, mid and treble boost/cut controls enable tone tweaking of your blend setting. A master volume completes the active electronics.

Player-Centered Design

Designed with the bassist in mind, the B-205SM sports an extra-low B string and 24 fret markers for hand positioning. Its slim, fast maple/jatoba 5-piece neck and thin U-shaped contour provide an excellent playing feel. The string-thru-body design offers stable tuning and sustain. Distinctive black nickel hardware and fret markers are as bold as your tone.
