2013 NS Design CR5 Radius Bass, Amber Stain. Excellent + condition with just 2 small areas of wear just above each pickup and a few dings along the back bottom edge. Supplied in an NS gig bag. It's been fully set up in our workshop with lovely action and excellent playability. 3-month warranty and a 14-day approval period included.
Nut width: 48 mm. Depth at 1st fret: 20.7 mm. String spacing at the bridge: 72 mm. Weight: 8 lbs 14 oz / 4.02 kg. Serial: 0003.
Meticulously crafted in the Czech Republic, the NS Design CR Series Radius Bass — available in 4, 5 and 6 string configurations with fretted/fretless options — embodies the breadth of experience, insight and design brilliance which only Ned Steinberger can bring to the creation of a new classic. His approach to the Radius, as with every new instrument, was to re-explore each facet of a bass guitar, leading to innovations such as the Fusion neck, the Diradial body design, the NS tuning system and NS/EMG pickup system.
The Radius Bass features a bolt-on one-piece maple neck with an embedded continuous carbon fibre core and adjustable truss rod. This combination has the natural feel of wood, but the core provides enhanced sustain and definition to each note. The fingerboard is ebony, with a 35" scale and a 15" radius.
Heavy conventional tuning machines are replaced by an aluminium head plate with ball-end string mounting slots, custom produced for NS Design by Hipshot with the tuning system integrated into the body.
NS Design and EMG have collaborated to create this integrated piezo and magnetic pickup system. It features an 18 volt onboard preamp, which provides extraordinary dynamic headroom. The active electronics are combined with the NS bridge-mounted Polar™ pickup system, the marriage of which puts an exceptionally broad, musically rich spectrum of tone at the player's fingertips.
The controls on the Radius Bass give the player full ability to shape and mix the magnetic and piezo output: Master Volume, active Treble cut/boost, active Bass cut/boost, rotary magnetic/piezo pickup blend, 3-position magnetic pickup selector switch, and 3-position piezo EQ switch.
