Kinal
custom basses have graphite-reinforced necks, attached with six bolts
for extra strength and better sustain. The fretted and fretless fingerboards
are made from rosewood, ebony, maple, or pau ferro.
Pickups
come from Lindy Fralin, Bartolini, EMG, Basslines, and other makers,
with 9- or 18-volt active electronics available.
Scale
length can be 34", 34.5", or 35". The necks and bodies
are ergonomically sculptured to allow comfortable access to the extended
scale. These instruments also balance extremely well and are lightweight
for long playing periods.
In addition
to full-size solid body and chambered basses, the Kompact Bass adds
portability and ease of use with great sound. Bass Player Magazine
has selected the Kompact Bass for Editor's Top Pick, and Art Thompson
of Guitar Player Magazine says, "The Kompact is a joy to play,
it sounds exceptionally warm and balanced, and its every curve and
radius is smoothly rounded for comfort and ease of packing."
