Each one will come with a black Tobias case and special Limited Run Series certificate of authenticity. Like all the guitars from this special series, only 350 will be produced and distributed. Everything about the 2009 Limited Run Series Tobias Growler breathes excellence, and they won’t be around for long. The Bartolini bridge pickup is a natural choice for the Growler, delivering the hearty lows, deep mids and quiet performance expected from a Bartolini bass pickup. It is matched with a 24-fret rosewood fingerboard void of any inlay markers and no binding.Īdditionally, every 2009 Limited Run Series Tobias Growler receives the revolutionary Plek system setup – a computerized setup that accurately aligns each fret and intonates each string, leaving the bass as impeccably playable as possible. It also sports a totally adjustable “Quad Bass” truss rod, for complete control in making all neck adjustments. Long before the world had heard of the Les Paul guitar pioneers forged the foundations of modern music with flat top parlour acoustics such as the Gibson EL-00. The 34-inch scale length glued-in neck is made from pure maple with purple heart laminate for a creamy smooth feel and easy, comfortable playability. This parlour sized electro-acoustic guitar pays tribute to the origins of Epiphone acoustic guitars.
The Growler’s tone is unique, and it’s hard to match. Swamp ash tonewood is characterized by huge, open pores and soft layers, which gives each new Growler a deep reverberation and fullness of sound across the entire frequency spectrum. Starting with its solid swamp ash body, the new Tobias Growler is one of the most resonant basses ever made by Gibson USA. Mahogany body with hand-rubbed oil finish, pao ferro fingerboard on a maple neck, graphite nut, EMG 3-band active EQ, custom-designed. The sleek, ergonomic design puts it clearly in the contemporary category, and it is made with the uncompromised American craftsmanship and quality components. Thirty-plus years and countless instruments later, the quality and precision of a Tobias bass has only gotten better, and nowhere is it more evident than the new 2009 Limited Run Series Tobias Growler from Gibson USA. Masters EP5 5-String Bass Natural Mahogany. Tobias basses have enjoyed a stellar reputation ever since the first one was built in early 1978. Is this a beauty or what? I would love to get my hands wrapped around this bass but with an MSRP of $3053 it's just a bit out of my reach.
