Frequently asked questions

What is the main difference in electronics between these two models?

The 2775 uses passive EMG 40-series pickups (40DC bridge, 40P5 neck) with no EQ. The 2781 features active EMG 35-series pickups (35DC bridge, 35P4 neck) paired with a 2-Band EMG EQ, allowing you to shape tone on the fly.

Which bass is more stable and resistant to neck dive?

The 2781 includes carbon fiber reinforcement in its 3-piece maple neck, making it more resistant to neck dive and better able to maintain stability across extended playing sessions. The 2775's neck lacks this reinforcement.

Are there any playability differences in the fretboard?

The 2781 features 24 X-Jumbo frets on a 16" radius Ebony fretboard with a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut, offering more upper-fret access and refined tuning response. The 2775 has a standard Ebony fretboard without X-Jumbo specification.

What do the B-stock conditions mean for each model?

The 2775 has minor cosmetic imperfections not affecting sound or playability. The 2781 has visible binding cracks at fret wire ends (visible in photos) but is fully functional and unplayed, offering savings despite the cosmetic issue.
