Main Features

  • Ovangkol top on maple core with mahogany wings – natural warmth and clarity
  • Bartolini® MK-1 pickups – balanced tone with punchy mids and sparkling highs
  • Markbass® MB-1 preamp – transparent boost with smooth lows and bell-like highs
  • MetalCraft M bridge – dual string loading system for sustain and playability
  • Individual saddle slots for enhanced tone transfer and stability

Ovangkol Top on Mahogany Wings with Maple Core

The Ovangkol top provides a luxurious look with its cinnamon-brown grain and dark streaks, perfectly paired with a maple centre core and mahogany wings. Tonally, Ovangkol offers warmth and resonance similar to rosewood and bubinga, with rich mids and smooth highs. The maple core enhances brightness and definition, while the mahogany adds warmth, resulting in a balanced, versatile tone profile.

Bartolini® MK-1 Pickups

Equipped with Bartolini® MK-1 pickups, the Artisan C4 Plus delivers the signature Bartolini sound – punchy, warm mids paired with transparent highs. These pickups provide exceptional clarity and articulation across a wide tonal range, making them ideal for both stage and studio use.

Markbass® MB-1 Preamp

The onboard Markbass® MB-1 preamp adds transparent boost without colouring the natural resonance of the woods. Expect smooth lows, full-bodied mids, and clear, bell-like highs – offering the warmth of passive tones with the flexibility of an active preamp.

MetalCraft M Bridge

The newly developed MetalCraft M bridge ensures maximum sustain and tonal transfer. Its dual string-loading system supports either through-body or top-load stringing, allowing players to optimise tension for their playing style. Deep individual saddle slots prevent movement, ensuring stable intonation and improved vibration transfer. With a 19mm string spacing (M4), this bridge delivers comfort and precision.
