Product Overview

The Solid Body Fretless U-Bass showcases an okoume body and top that provides lightweight construction with warm, balanced tonal characteristics, while the maple neck ensures reliable stability and bright tonal response. The sleek offset body shape with contoured design creates optimal playing comfort and visual appeal, enhanced by the bold Jet Black finish that offers classic sophistication and timeless aesthetic appeal. The striking contrast between the Jet Black body and white single-ply pickguard creates a distinctive visual statement.

The 23.5" scale fretless fingerboard opens up new sonic possibilities unavailable with traditional fretted instruments, allowing for smooth glissandos, microtonal bends, and the distinctive mwah tone that defines fretless bass playing. The laurel fingerboard provides smooth playing action across the entire range, while the compact 33.25" overall length makes this bass ideal for travel, practice, and performance situations where space is limited.

The passive split-coil pickup delivers the thick, meaty tone enhanced by the unique sustain and harmonic characteristics that fretless construction provides. Simple volume and tone controls provide intuitive sound shaping while maintaining the signal clarity essential for capturing the nuanced expression that fretless playing offers.
