Notify Me When AvailableFar and away the favorite California U•BASS®, each Hawaiian Koa top California U•BASS is a unique, highly figured, one-of-a-kind masterpiece. The grain can have streaks and lines, to circles and dimples. The light curling and figuring has colors ranging from golden blonde to auburn red, and chocolate brown and compliments perfectly with the natural back and sides. The exceptional low-end this instrument produces, combined with outstanding craftsmanship, makes this model a perfect fit for the next-level bass player. This U•BASS is handmade in California using custom-made parts, including the Kala + LR Baggs preamp that delivers a huge low end and versatility. This custom preamp lets the California U•BASS produce the bass tone that the U•BASS is known for, plus clarity in the mid-range and upper registers. Plug-in and experience the full range of what the U•BASS has to offer!
This Hawaiian Koa Top California U•BASS has a Roasted Maple fingerboard instead of Maple. It is considered a blem because it has some milling marks at the very bottom of the sides, near the strap button, and also a small tear out around battery compartment.
