Bass of the Week: Alusonic S-Special Aluminum Bass – No Treble

notreble.com

The Alusonic S-Special aluminum bass stands out with its eco-friendly design and customizable features, delivering a rich, balanced sound from its quality alloys. It boasts a modern aesthetic and versatile pickup options that cater to various musical styles. However, its substantial weight of 10.4 pounds might be a concern for some players. While the craftsmanship is commendable, the price point of approximately $3,457 could be steep for those on a budget. Overall, the S-Special is an innovative choice for serious bassists ready to make a statement, but it's not without its compromises.
