The Manhattan Prestige Session One is a J-style four-string bass designed for the working session player, built around an Alder body and a Maple neck with a Custom Manhattan Prestige neck profile that fits naturally in the hand for long stints in the studio or on stage. Two custom-wound Wilkinson J-style pickups deliver the articulate, harmonically complex single-coil voice that's anchored countless R&B, funk, and rock records, paired with Wilkinson hardware throughout — bridge, tuners, and the brand's clean satin-finished bolt-on neck. A rolled-edge Rosewood fingerboard with a 9.5-inch radius and Luminlay side fret markers keeps the playing comfortable in any light, while a TUSQ nut, magnetic backplate, and D'Addario .045–.105 strings round out a bass that punches well above its price. Finished in Natural with a high-gloss poly finish that showcases the alder body's grain for an understated, organic look.
