Dan Saltzman, bassist van Illucinus, bespeelt in deze demo de LTD Deluxe M-1004 bas. Met zijn neck-thru-body constructie en 35” scale krijg je een krachtige sustain, resonerende toon en de mogelijkheid om uitgebreide tunings te gebruiken en toch een geweldige snaarspanning te behouden, zoals Dan hier doet in deze drop-B compositie.
De M-1004 heeft ook eersteklas componenten zoals 24 roestvrijstalen frets, Grover stemknoppen, Gotoh brug en een set Fishman Fluence SB-1 actieve pickups met volume-, balans- en toonregeling die push/pull is voor single-coil mode voicing.
