 PBC GUITAR TECHNOLOGY | | ELECTRIC BASS: GTB SERIES | Companion basses to the GTS series guitars of the early 1990s can be viewed as forerunners to today's current models. Both the 200 series and the 350 series offered Tension-Free necks and through-the-body bridges, 34 in. scale, 24-fret fingerboards, and PBC pickups. The GTB 200 (list $995) featured a offset double cutaway body, four-on-a-side headstock, and chrome hardware. A five-string version, the GTB 205 (list $1,295) featured similar hardware.
Both the four-string GTB 350 and five-string GTB 355 headless models have the same features as the current models. However, the newer designs have a more pronounced inverse body curve by the bridge. Earlier models had prices that ranged from $1,195 to $1,895.
Later GTB models featured Tension-Free necks and through-the-body bridges. | | GTB 354 | | - double cutaway alder body, figured maple top, 5-piece laminated maple and walnut neck, 34 in. scale, 24-fret rosewood (or maple or morado) fingerboard with dot inlay, PBC through-the-body bridge, 2+2 tuners, gold or chrome hardware, two EMG DC pickups, volume/tone controls, pickup selector switch, available in Natural, Amberburst, Vintageburst, or Trans.
