Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
With two Haymaker bass humbuckers and an HH layout, the American Ultra II Meteora Bass is built around a wide range of onboard sound-shaping choices. The S-1 switching, 3-band active EQ, passive tone control, pan control, and two-position midrange selector keep those adjustments at the bass. A sculpted select alder body joins a quartersawn maple Modern D neck and 10–14-inch compound-radius ebony fingerboard. The right-handed, 34-inch-scale layout is ready for studio recording and stage use.
