Pedulla Rapture RB-5 5-String Bass 

The Rapture Series of bass guitars have their soul set in vintage vibes but with a supreme modern feel, build quality and attention to detail. Employing the traditional bolt-on neck join the Rapture Series differs from the MVP, Buzz and Thunder instruments that utilize through-neck construction. The bolt-on neck is constructed from rock hard maple and is available with a maple or rosewood fingerboard. Pedulla have a long tradition of using soft maple in their basses and the Rapture is no exception. Hand selecting beautiful grain the RB bass has a tone that is warm, rounded and balanced in tone. The high end is detailed but retains an overall warmth that lovers of vintage instruments will find instant appeal with. The RB-5 variation employs a single custom Pedulla/Bartolini pickup and active circuit with mid-cut switch. We would describe the RB series of instruments as perfect for bassists that need a versatile instrument with a vintage vibe. Pedulla Basses are proudly made in the USA.

The Rapture 5-String Bass is Pedulla's "modern vintage" design, with a satin finish bolt-on neck and a pearloid pickguard. The Rapture's thinner, racier design combines a single flatsawn hard maple neck and a solid soft eastern maple body. This combination sets the stage for a classic sound enhanced by a smooth midrange and a bright high-end that cuts through even the most crowded mix.

Specially tailored active electronics bring out the Rapture's unique tonal range. The single pickup (RB-SB) includes master volume and separate bass and treble control knobs to allow complete flexibility in shaping the sound. A mid-cut switch accentuates the Rapture bass' gut shaking sub-bottom while emphasizing high-end clarity and growl and delivering vintage punch with an extra wide attack.

The Rapture has a machined brass "barrel" bridge which imparts the more traditional sound Pedulla wanted from a bolt on.
