Frequently Asked Questions
It’s punchier and more focused than a short-scale bass, lacking some of the boomy low-end but offering a unique, articulate tone.
The high-gloss finish looks great, but okoume is relatively soft; a gig bag and careful handling are recommended to avoid cosmetic damage.
The 23.5” scale takes some adjustment; the fret spacing is closer, requiring a slightly different fingering technique, but the maple neck is generally comfortable.
