You might not be too familiar with the name Jonas Björler, but if you’ve heard much from Swedish metal band The Haunted you’re likely to have been impressed with his solid tone and thrash-influenced bass playing. Gear-wise, Jonas reckons that Sonar Guitars – makers of six (and eight)-string electric guitars as well as bass guitars – are such an important part of his tone that he’s had the company make him a signature model.
The metal-friendly AB1.4JB is built with a swamp ash body and bolt-on maple neck. A pair of Seymour Duncan USA Quarter Pounders have been paired with passive electronics to deliver a range of tones that’s said to excel with heavy gain, while the easy-to-navigate control layout should keep things user-friendly.
