Solano Speed Shop F-Type Saloon "Cosmic Burst" 2023

Solano Speed Shop F-Type Saloon — “Cosmic Burst” — Handbuilt Bass

For players who want player-centric precision paired with bold aesthetics, this Solano Speed Shop F-Type Saloon in a unique Cosmic Burst finish delivers. One-of-one custom craftsmanship meets classic P-bass roots — fully hand-built and set up to pro standards.

This isn’t a production run — this is a bespoke instrument that feels and plays like it was made for you.

Key Features & What It Brings to the Gig

• Classic P-Bass Tone, Boutique Build — Traditional 50’s style split pickup with Dylan Talks Tone P-bass pickup delivers that familiar, punchy fundamental — but with clarity and nuance that make it stand out in a mix. No onboard EQ keeps signal pure and punchy.
• Balanced, Resonant Body — Flame maple top and back with maple body give richness and shimmer without flabbiness — tight lows, clear mids, and ringing highs.
• Stable, Playable Neck — Single-piece roasted maple neck with carbon rods and a double-action truss rod ensures resilience and longevity. The dark roasted maple fretboard and 12″ radius feel fast and even up the neck.
• Pro Hardware — Gotoh tuners and a hi-mass bridge in black chrome mean rock-solid tuning and sustain. Switchcraft jack and copper-foil shielding show attention to performance details.
• Striking Aesthetic — The Cosmic Burst stain in pink, purple, and blue gives this bass an eye-catching presence without feeling gimmicky.

This F-Type Saloon combines classic vibe with boutique feel. It’s fundamentally a great player’s bass — comfortable, dependable, and honest — but enhanced with materials and appointments you typically only see on higher-tier custom builds. Ideal for recording, gigging, or anyone who wants that P-bass soul with an elevated feel.
