Featuring an AeroSilk Piezo pickup, the UB804 has a specially-modified amplified tone that picks up every detail of your playing technique, whether bowed or plucked.

The pickup helps to balance the output levels, so you'll always have a smooth dynamic level and a full sound. The minimal body and through-neck design comes with a TAMA stand, so you can easily get set-up on stage with a small foot-print - ideal for cramped performance areas. A mono-rail MR4 bridge gives optimal string stability and isolation, while the maple body with maple/walnut neck helps to give the natural wood characteristics of an upright bass.

The 1/4 size 34'' scale length is ideal for electric players making the transition to an upright instrument, or for students just getting to grips with the double bass. If you're a player who wants access to authentic double bass tones but in a more portable package, the UB804 is the perfect solution.
