Italian Made!! The Navigator, an overseas model not included in the F1 series catalog, is now available. The F1 series, inspired by Formula 1, is a high-quality instrument made by uncompromising string instrument craftsmen in Italy, a country with a long history of string instrument making, using materials carefully selected for this instrument. This high-grade model features an original body shape with improved pickup positioning made specifically for this instrument, and the body is luxuriously made from lightweight spruce from Val di Fiemme in Italy. The neck is made of strong maple, not laminated, but in one piece. Combined with the fast response provided by the bolt-on joint, it responds sensitively to even the most delicate picking touches, allowing for a rich range of musical expression. Enjoy a wide range of tones, from the punchy sound of the P split coil, to the fat tone of the bridge humbucker, to J-style split tones with a single coil, and everything in between. The preamp is equipped with Markbass' specially designed onboard preamp, the MB INSTRUMENT Pre, and the tone control not only boosts or cuts the frequency range, but also maintains a consistent low to high range even at extreme settings. It's also practically designed to minimize volume differences when switching between passive and active.
