Obbligato Brings the Passive Analog Modeling System to the P-Bass

Obbligato, Inc. releases Turnstyle, the world's first 100% analog P-Bass guitar modeling system that installs directly into any Fender® Precision Bass® Guitar and most similar instrument. This marks the second Turnstyle applications born out of the Obbligato Custom Shop.

The patent pending design uses the bass guitar's magnetic pickup and a convenient rotary switch to enable bass players to seamlessly switch between five instantly recognizable bass guitar tones. The growing Turnstyle product family continues to offer a significantly lower-cost alternative to most digital processor guitars and can be installed by anyone with basic soldering skills.

The unit is 100% return to stock friendly with no routing required and is a completely reversible mod. Price was kept to a minimum by leveraging the customer's existing pickups. This also allows the freedom of using Turnstyle with virtually all makes and models of Precision Bass® compatible pickups.

Turnstyle ships fully assembled with Pickguard, knobs, master volume and tone controls, Turnstyle switch, new mounting screws and a genuine Switchcraft output jack. Turnstyle for Precision Bass® is available in Black, White , White Pearl and Tortoise Shell and can be installed by anyone with basic soldering skills. No need remove the strings even.

"Turnstyle was designed to be completely stealth in appearance and to operate in a performance setting, making it instantly second nature to switch between sounds during the middle of a song without missing a note or having to look at the controls. Over a decade of development went into turning a cluster of toggle switches into a single rotary switch without resorting to relays, integrated circuits or batteries" — Turnstyle Design Team

Turnstyle replaces the consumer's controls instead of their guitar, is completely analog, requires no batteries, and provides instant access to five top bass guitar tones. More information and sound samples available at http://www.obbligatoinc.com/index.php?/turnstyle-for-precision-bass.html
