Johnny Christ is bassist for American metal band Avenged Sevenfold. With an ash body, his signature bass produces a powerful and defined tone. The bolt-on maple neck with the "C" neck profile and the ebony fretboard provide a comfortable playing surface, while the 21 narrow X-jumbo frets ensure precise playing. Grover tuners and gold hardware should not be missing here.
