Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 5-string bass harder to play than a 4-string?
While the neck is slightly wider, the LTD B-15’s Thin-U profile makes it very comfortable. The addition of the low B string allows you to play lower notes without having to de-tune your guitar, which is a major advantage for modern rock and metal.
Does the Active Tone Boost require a battery?
Yes, the active circuit is powered by a 9V battery. We recommend unplugging your instrument cable when not in use to save battery life during storage in the UAE.
What kind of strings should I use for a 5-string bass?
We recommend using standard long-scale 5-string sets (usually .045 to .125 or .130 gauge). Heavier gauges can provide a tighter feel on the low B string if you prefer more tension.
