34” scale "Alto-bass" (Tuned C#, F#, B, E-a major sixth above standard tuning). The body features ash wings with a mahogany core and a spalted maple top. The five piece neck is constructed of maple and has Brazilian cherry stringers and a spalted maple epoxy coated fingerboard. A single, passive, Basslines soapbar pickup in the bridge position makes it sing.

This is the first Ryan bass, and is a 34" 4-string fretless. The body is Honduran mahogany with a bookmatched spalted maple top. The bass features my special singlecut pocket and 6-bolt neck joint. The bridge is a Wilkinson and the pickups are active EMGs. The controls are volume, volume and a master tone. The neck is a sandwich of maple and bubinga, with a two-octave bookmatched spalted maple fingerboard with a Bubinga substrate for strength. It also has a thick layer of Mirror coat epoxy over it for that extra wear ability and fretless zing. The tuners are Gotoh. The headstock has the signature on the back.
