Much like it's 4-string brother, the B-104, the LTD B-105 is short on scale, but big on great sound, it's extra string allowing you to delve even deeper into the barrel of bass grooves. It's dual ESP SB-5 pickups w/ESP ABQ-2 2-band active EQ catpure the bright tones created by the basswood body, bolt-on maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard. Style-wise it also has thick, beveled edges which accentuate the body's rounded curves. The upper horn is elongated while a deep cutaway along the much smaller lower horn gives you better access to the lowest of the 24 XJ frets. It's also got a unique angular cut at the end of the fretboard, underneath the strings, a shapely headstock, and chrome hardware, which give this bass exceptional flair.
