Swan Custom Basses is a bass guitar brand based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Its high quality is especially highly regarded in North and South America, and it is expanding its presence in other regions as well.
This is the Alpha Infinity with modern specifications.
The body is made of ash and processed into a hollow body.
The neck is made of 3-piece straight-grained hard maple.
The technique of gluing multiple pieces of wood together to make the neck reduces left-right and individual differences and achieves greater stability.
The fingerboard is made of Birdseye Maple, a traditional wood composition.
The pickups are Argentina's Lake Pickups' Triple Agent.
This can be switched between Single Coil, Fat Humbucker, and Modern Humbucker by a switch.
The preamp is the Mike Pope Preamp.
It is equipped with a 4-band EQ.
Controls include volume/tone, balancer, bass/treble, low-mid, high-mid, 2x pickup switches, and a preamp bypass switch.
The back cover is held in place by a magnet, so it can be removed without tools.
As with the sound and playability, this high level of usability is evident everywhere.
The unique round body design is eye-catching, but it also provides excellent balance whether you're standing or sitting.
The quality of the neck and fingerboard is very high, and you can get pure string vibration even with the string height lowered.
The high quality of this bass gives you a sense of security.
The sound has a modern vintage feel, with a smooth response and a classic attack.
The smooth feel of the bass, rich overtones, and boomy sound, gives it a unique character, but at the same time, it also has universal value.
The headless design is well-balanced, and the fact that it puts less stress on the left hand is also an attractive feature.
This bass is one you'll want to play forever.
South American bass brands have long shown great potential, but because they are unique, they have not been well received in the Japanese market. (The high import costs due to being located on the other side of the world may also be a factor.)
However, Swan has skillfully incorporated these unique features into a sophisticated design that is characteristic of modern basses.
A new style that is neither European nor North American.
A masterpiece that all bassists should try.
