AC Guitars Finn R-Type 5-String 33" Scale Bass - NAMM 2026 Feature
Model: ACG Finn R Type Weight: 8.86 lbs
This Finn R Type showcases ACG's ability to blend classic tonal foundations with modern aesthetics and playability. The Spanish Cedar body core paired with Flame Redwood top and back, with a Sycamore accent veneer, creates a warm, resonant foundation with stunning grain patterns that catch the eye. The AI Flame Sycamore fingerboard continues the visual theme while providing smooth, fast playability. The combination of a PB split coil in the neck position and RFB humbucker at the bridge offers vintage Precision Bass warmth blended with ACG's signature high-fidelity clarity. The East Uni-Pre 4K preamp provides extensive tonal shaping with both active and passive modes, making this bass equally at home in the studio or on stage.
