Key Features:

• Tuning and Range:

  • The Bass VI is tuned an octave lower than a standard guitar, allowing it to cover bass lines while retaining the feel of a six-string guitar. This unique tuning gives it a deep, rich sound that’s perfect for filling out the low end in a mix or exploring new sonic textures.

• Neck and Playability:

  • The instrument features a slim “C”-shaped neck profile for comfortable playability, ideal for both bass and guitar players.
  • The 9.5"-radius laurel fingerboard with narrow-tall frets offers an easy-playing experience, making it easier to navigate the full length of the neck for both chords and single-note lines.

• Vintage Styling:

  • The floating bridge with barrel saddles ensures solid string stability and contributes to the instrument’s classic look and feel.
  • The vintage-style tremolo adds expressive capabilities, allowing players to incorporate subtle vibrato or more dramatic pitch bends.
  • 1960s-inspired headstock markings and the vintage-tint gloss neck finish enhance the retro aesthetic, giving the Bass VI an authentic, old-school vibe.
  • Nickel-plated hardware not only looks great but also ensures durability and reliability.

• Limited Edition Tahitian Coral Finish:

  • The Tahitian Coral finish gives this model a striking, standout appearance, making it a visually unique instrument that still honors its vintage roots.
