MTD Artist

Sign in to disble this ad
MTD ARTIST 5 String - Amber $500 Shipped CONUS

will pack well and ship in a new gigbag.

Currently strung with rounds, although I forget what. the pictures show the bass with chromes on the EADG.

The Shpiel:
The MTD Kingston Artist basses are created for the player who is looking for the aggressive sound of the large pole, dual humbucking pickups made popular in the 70’s and 80’s. The Artist incorporates many of the superior design elements found on MTD’s revered American series instruments - but at a fraction of the cost.

Carefully constructed using high quality Basswood, Eastern Hard Rock Maple and beautifully finished in a stunning high gloss, the Kingston Artist is equipped to meet the demands of any serious player.

Features include:
35” scale
Carved Basswood body
One-piece neck w/satin polyester finish
Maple Fretboard
24 medium jumbo frets
Zero fret 1-3/4” wide
MTD exposed pole alnico MM-style pickup
Active 3-Way EQ
Volume/Bass/Mid/Treble Controls
Shielded electronics compartment
MTD quick release bridge, 3/4” (19mm) spacing
Double acting truss rod
Buzz Feiten Tuning System
Weighs 8.6 lbs.

Hate to see that you are selling it. The Artists are really nice basses. Good luck with your sale and free bump.

why is there no MTD love around these parts lately? These basses are awesome! if I hadn't of just bought one I would be all over this! and the amber is a bit of a rarity to find! This is an AMAZING deal! should be illegal practically at this price, because it is a total steal!

Is the stock pickup on these able to be tapped to single coil, or switched to series/parallel?
