Product Overview
The B-206SM showcases an ash body topped with beautiful spalted maple that provides both exceptional tonal characteristics and striking visual appeal. The ash delivers bright, punchy tone with excellent sustain and clarity, while the spalted maple top adds unique visual character with its distinctive grain patterns and additional tonal complexity. The 35" scale length enhances string tension and clarity across all six strings, particularly beneficial for the extended low and high range performance.
The 5-piece maple/jatoba neck construction ensures exceptional stability and sustain, while the thin U neck shape offers comfortable playability despite the wider 6-string configuration. The roasted jatoba fingerboard with 24 extra jumbo frets provides smooth playing action with enhanced durability and visual appeal, complemented by simple dot inlays for easy position identification across the extended range.
The ESP Designed SB-6N humbuckers at both neck and bridge positions deliver low-noise performance with professional output levels, while the active 3-band EQ system provides comprehensive tonal shaping capabilities. The volume control features push/pull functionality for active/passive operation, offering both modern active enhancement and traditional passive bass tones.
