Product Description

Kala has been turning upright bass literally on its side with the 20 inch scale U.BASS which bassist Dave Pomeroy has dubbed portable and powerful. The U.BASS 2 provides an affordable alternative to the original U.BASS. Features proprietary Polyurethane Strings, a passive pickup system with 4 individual piezo elements, Rosewood fingerboard and bridge, and solid mahogany neck. Plus the U.BASS 2 sports a solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides.

The compact size makes the U.BASS 2 extremely portable and able to meet all carry-on standards. Its deep bass tone makes the U.BASS 2 ideal for live and studio applications. Noted U.BASS users include Jim Mayer (Jimmy Buffet), Bakithi Kumalo (Paul Simon) and Hutch Hutchinson (Bonnie Raitt). Because of its size and ease of playing, dealers and teachers are discovering that the U.BASS makes an excellent bass for student bassists.

Comes equipped with a heavily padded gig bag. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Kala Brand Ukulele products.

Customer Reviews
4 out of 5 (8 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "You can spend your money more wisely"
Sound: Great Sound once you can get the strings to STAY in tune. Big problem is that the intonation is terrible- Mine is totally off key by the time I get to the third fret. Produces a great sound through any amp that I used and it's fun to play. I'm going to give it another week to see if the strings stretch out. But for $400.00 + it ends up being an very expensive Toy and if I can't get the intonation under control - it will be returned. Feature: No Features. Ease of Use: Easy to use once you get used to the short scale. Quality: Nice looking, but not sure where my problem originates. So lets call it factory control. Value: It's fun to play and has a grat sound, but over priced for what it is. Would feel better about the price if the intonaton was set correctly ( There is no way to adjust it ). Manufacturer Support: Haven't contacted the company about a return, but they have solid reputation, so Im not worred. The Wow Factor: Wouldn't consider it to have sex appeal, but it is a good conversation piece. Overall: I will most likely be returning it.
Style of Music: Classic rock & blues

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "U-Bass for small groups:)"
Sound: I am not one to ask Feature: Very satisfied Overall: I played piano as a kid and wanted an instrument to use in a small setting for house church. This little bass is fantastic. I am having a great time learning to play it and accompany an acoustic. I am using the little "Fender Champ 600" . Very happy.
