When your resume includes Jeff Beck, The Who, Eric Clapton, Simon & Garfunkel, D'Angelo and John Mayer (to name a few), you're obviously doing something right! And when your bass is as special as legendary session bassist Pino Palladino's, it's no wonder the Custom Shop chose to reproduce his '62 Precision Bass. Featuring a light alder body, a C-shape straight grain maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, custom-wound pickup, tortoise shell pickguard and Thomastik-Infeld® strings - Pino's signature bass is made to his exacting specifications.
