Adam Blackstone's ATK

His custom made ATK sounds monster.
[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
---------------------------------------
AB on his custom ATK model: I’ll have bird’s-eye maple wood on the neck. The neck wood’s going to make all the difference as far as fluidity and clarity. I think it’s going to be neck-thru, not a bolt-on. It’s going to be 35” scale and I think it’s going to have Bartolini’s, even the triple pickup :eek: The Ibanez pickups sound great, but I think the Bartolini’s will give me just a little more push. I only usually play active basses. I own a ’69 P-Bass, but I pretty much just stick with the Ibanez. I’m a heavier tone player so I need the active pickups.
