The Eko PB300 is an electric bass with timeless lines that have marked every generation of bassists since the 1950s. With its passive electronics consisting of a precise-sounding single P-type pickup, and its 21-fret maple neck, the PB300 offers versatility and comfort that will delight any bassist just starting out on his musical adventure.
The timeless silhouette that inspired the PB300's design needs no introduction: the characteristic double cutaway for excellent access to the last fret, combined with a single pickup and a 4-bridge bridge/tailpiece block, represent a visual signature that's more than recognizable. This classic configuration has been adopted by Italian manufacturer Eko to make the PB300 an attractive electric bass, ergonomic with its contained weight and welcoming curves, and above all highly versatile for novice bassists.
Despite its very affordable price, the PB300's lutherie has received the utmost attention in order to offer bassists new to the instrument an attractive, well-finished bass. The body, crafted from poplar for strength, is highlighted by a high-gloss varnish. The sturdy, comfortable 4-point screwed maple neck is topped by an laurel fingerboard, bringing stability and warmth.
As for the electronics, the PB300 is equipped with a single-coil P-type pickup, highly appreciated for its versatility and precision. Great for clear sounds, it can also be very biting and percussive when combined with powerful distortion. To extend the range of sound possibilities, a general tone control allows you to adjust the timbre for greater or lesser brilliance. The bridge/tailpiece block incorporates independently adjustable saddles to fine-tune the action and harmonics of each string and ensure effective sustain.
Affordable, precise and aesthetically pleasing with its timeless silhouette and high-gloss finish, the PB300 is the ideal instrument for a fun start on electric bass, without breaking the bank.
