Sometimes 1 or 2 pickups just doesn’t quite do it, but THREE, now we’re talking…
This Super Custom Midwestern 2 is loaded with 2 B90s and a Serek Single and controlled by a Freeway 6-Position Switch which affords a ton of tonal possibilities. (B Solo, N Solo, B N, B M, M Solo, All 3).
Benny ran wild with some Pearl Tops giving this a unique Semi-Gloss (a bit glossier than our usual Satin finishes) Dark and Light Pearlescent Primer finish. The pearl flake is super tiny, so it is hard to photograph, but when the light hits it just right, look out! Even the headstock faceplate has a pearl mist on it!
“The Midwestern 2 takes a more modern approach than its sibling, the original Midwestern bass. Updates include a sleek new design with body contours and a lower cutaway for full access to 21 frets. The Midwestern 2 is made up of a lightweight Mahogany body and the same 30.5″ scale Mahogany set neck found on the Midwestern. Pickup options are endless, but I find this bass tends to enjoy a more versatile, 2-pickup configuration such as our Serek Singles!”
