The Novo Ivorus Bass Fretless in Mayan Burst is a striking blend of old-soul character and modern finesse, built for players who crave feel, nuance, and visual drama. Finished in Novo’s stunning Mayan Burst and treated with a tasteful medium distress, this bass looks and feels like a trusted companion from day one. The tempered pine body, paired with elegant front and back contours, keeps the instrument lightweight and resonant while sitting comfortably against the body for long sessions on stage or in the studio.
At the heart of its effortless playability is a tempered maple neck carved into a comfortable medium ‘C’ profile (.830"), topped with a luxurious African blackwood fingerboard. The fretless design, combined with a classic 7.25" fingerboard radius and a slightly shorter 32" scale length, delivers a smooth, vocal response that encourages expressive slides, singing vibrato, and precise intonation. A matching headstock completes the look with understated sophistication.
Tonally, the Ivorus Bass Fretless shines with a pair of Novo Jazzmaster Bass pickups by Lollar, featuring both neck and bridge positions for a wide palette of sounds—from warm, upright-inspired lows to articulate, growling mids with clarity and definition. The intuitive Volume, Blend, and Tone controls make it easy to dial in everything from classic fretless thump to modern, nuanced textures. Anchoring it all is a Hipshot A Style bridge, paired with chrome/nickel hardware and smooth nickel tuners for rock-solid tuning stability and sustain.
Details matter here: the aged pearloid pickguard adds vintage charm, while 50–105 Stringjoy strings provide balanced tension and a rich, responsive feel under the fingers. The bass ships ready to go in a Novo Deluxe padded gig bag, ensuring premium protection wherever your music takes you. The Novo Ivorus Bass Fretless in Mayan Burst isn’t just an instrument—it’s an invitation to explore tone, touch, and expression at the highest level.
