New four- and five-string basses from Hicksville, NY-based luthiers Michael Kelly Guitars are incoming, with street prices of $699.99 and $739.99 respectively. The Pinnacles come with a natural burl finish, swamp ash bodies, five-piece maple and walnut necks, and ebony fretboards, while custom-wound, coil-splittable Rockfield MDC humbucker pickups deliver the tones. A three-band EQ and push-pull active/passive selector adds options. We’ve played and reviewed Michael Kelly basses before, and been impressed by their playability and build at this price point, so we’ll be testing these instruments as soon as we get hold of them.
