Al Berry plays his First Act Delgada bass on tour with Avril Lavigne. The Delgada features an alder body, maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard. The neck has a 34” scale with a D to C tapering profile for smooth transitioning from low to high frets. Two Kent Armstrong bass humbuckers with Alnico magnets are wired for series and parallel switching. Berry’s bass is dressed with flashy chrome hardware and a Classic White finish.
