A Modern Single Cut Designed for Performance in the M. Miller Range
The GB5-4 NT embodies a decidedly modern approach to the 4-string bass: "single cut" ergonomics, luthiery focused on sustain thanks to the neck-through construction, and electronics designed to quickly switch from a clean studio sound to more aggressive textures. Its Natural satin finish highlights the grain, while the black hardware reinforces its current identity.
For Which Bassists and Styles?
This bass is primarily aimed at intermediate to advanced bassists seeking a wide sonic palette and precise response. It excels in modern funk, fusion, pop, gospel, R&B, rock, and metal (notably due to the long scale), while remaining comfortable in cleaner contexts where definition and dynamics are essential.
