Bass of the Week: Mike Lull Custom Guitars M4V/M5V – No Treble

notreble.com

The Mike Lull M5V bass guitar is a tribute to classic design, expertly blending vintage aesthetics with modern playability. Its downsized body and contoured neck deliver a fast, comfortable playing experience, while the choice of quality woods and pickups offers versatility across genres. However, its premium craftsmanship comes at a price that may not suit every budget. Overall, the M5V stands as a remarkable instrument that honors Lull's legacy, though potential buyers should be prepared for the investment.
