Jolana Jantar Bass

Jantar bass were made at Horovice in the end of 80's. They were the last "pair" in Jolana history, and since then there were no matching guitar-bass couples with similar body outline. 

The bass has a bolt-on neck; body is made out off beach-blocks (glued together). It has the same pu's as used on the D-Bass and the RK-Bass, with three pots: a volume for each pu and a common tone and huge transparent (2 cm height) knobs. Both pu's can be selected separately or together by a toggle switch.

The finish is three color sunburst, neck & head are painted too. Tuners seem to be trustfull. No quotes on playabillity (I'm not a bass player), but after testing it it seems to be ok: enough output and feels good in my hands. The bottom of the body seems to be borrowed from Alembic designs - or a leftover cut-out from a Gibson open book headstock. The bass bears a 1057 serial number on the neck. As far as we know, Jolana serials say nothing about production dates, these are codes that relate to necks only. http://cheesyguitars.com
