Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
This Alien Deluxe Hybrid is a seriously cool instrument—a surprisingly versatile acoustic-electric bass. The thin-line body keeps it comfortable, while the hybrid pickup system gives you a ton of tonal options, from natural acoustic to plugged-in growl. It's ideal for gigging musicians needing a stage-ready acoustic bass or songwriters seeking a unique recording tool.
