Kala U-Bass Solid Mahogany Fretless Ukelele
The Kala U-BASS is truly a ground breaking short scale (20") bass that produces the same pitches as a standard bass instrument and is tuned in traditional bass tuning, EADG. Available in fretted and fretless models, the U-BASS is strung with proprietary polyurethane strings that incorporate a great bass feel, with balanced tension; they are a true pleasure to play. We have been told that the U-BASS can produce tones closer to the sound of an upright bass than any other instrument. Extremely portable (meets carry-on standards), the U-BASS can go anywhere! It has custom Hipshot tuners and a passive Shadow pickup system that features 4 individual piezo elements and compensated saddles. It has a solid Mahogany body and neck, Rosewood finger-board and bridge. This unique product is the result of a collaborative effort between Kala Brand Music and Owen Holt of Road Toad Music. All U-BASS come with a custom hard-foam case.
