My new go-to U

I love it! I knew I wanted a new bass challenge. All roads led to the Kala U-bass. It was a pleasure to purchase my brand-new fretless striped ebony U-bass. Once it arrived, the first challenge was to tune it and to get used to the feel of the silicone strings. At the same time, I found myself playing more, and it has been a thrill to be on the journey of learning new sounds and playing in a new way. I've already used it on a recording. And talk about portable! The perfect size, and delivers a huge sound. I'm so happy to have this new addition to my bass family. Here's the video I posted to YouTube the day it arrived - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYw1YrwsG4c

Excellent piece of equipment

This is my second ubass. The first one is a fretted version. I was initially afraid of the un-fretted model because I didn't think I could find the positions accurately enough without the help of frets. But, coming from a background of playing double bass, I found the frets annoying. So, I decided to try the un-fretted model. And, though I'm still on the learning curve, I find that this model is much more satisfactory to me.
