Description

Unleash your creativity with the Veillette-Citron Standard 4 String, a timeless masterpiece from the dawn of the boutique bass era. This instrument is a harmonious blend of craftsmanship and innovation, designed for musicians who appreciate both form and function. Crafted with a 3-piece flame maple neck-thru body design, it promises stability, sustain, and a striking aesthetic that captivates at first glance.

The Veillette-Citron Standard stands out with its solid maple body wings, offering a rich and resonant tone that resonates with every pluck of the string. The rosewood fretboard with 22 frets and dot inlays ensures smooth playability and precision, making it ideal for both professional performances and studio sessions.

What sets this bass apart are the early modifications that elevate its sonic capabilities. The original hand-made pickups have been replaced with Hi-A pickups by Bill Bartolini, surrounded by walnut for a touch of elegance. These pickups provide a clear, dynamic sound that can be further customized using the three mini-toggle switches for coil tapping and phase shifting, along with two volume and two tone controls.

Each Veillette-Citron Standard is sealed with a thick copper shielding tape in the control cavity, ensuring a pristine signal path, and is hand-signed for authenticity. With its chrome hardware, Schaller tuners, and original hard case, this bass is not just an instrument; it's a piece of musical history that belongs in a fine collection.
