T
he Mosaic BB5 is the result of
Zon Guitar's creative partner-
ship
with Vital information bassist
Baron Browne. The BB5 is Baron's
signature instrument and features a
medium weight ash body with a
maple neck and fingerboard.
The bass is powered by two single-
coil Duncan pickups and passive
electronics.
"With both volume controls up to
full the bass is very punchy, allowing
me to get a Motown-y tone near
the neck or a Tower of Power
bottom, yet percussive sound, closer
to the bridge." Browne said.
"Those who are fond of a more
Pastorious bridge pickup tone, while
turning back the front pickup, will
be pleased to find a nice low-mid
slicing warmth without it sounding
too nasal. It's the closest to my
beloved Fender Jazz that I've
played. It's my Fender and more!"
Browne added.
