Features
Compact bass, commanding tone
The short scale format keeps things comfortable and portable while still producing a convincing, full range bass voice. Fat, low tension strings and a responsive body let you sit confidently in the mix, from intimate acoustic jams to plug in performances.
Mahogany body warmth
A mahogany body provides the familiar, musical warmth players expect, with a pleasing midrange focus that suits rhythmic lines and melodic bass hooks. It resonates freely yet keeps note definition intact, giving you a rounded thump with plenty of character.
Effortless playability
The compact scale length, smooth fingerboard and comfortable neck profile help new and advancing players relax into proper left hand technique. Low tension strings are easy on the fingertips and make it simple to fret clean notes and slides, even during longer sessions.
Plug in and perform
Ready for the stage or studio, the onboard pickup system means your tone translates cleanly through an amp or PA. Simple controls keep setup quick and reliable, so you can focus on time, feel and musicality.
Ideal for tuition and travel
Lightweight and easy to store, this ukulele bass suits UK school ensembles, peripatetic teaching and home practice alike. It is an affordable way to introduce bass roles in classroom settings and a practical companion for rehearsals, gigs and commuting.
