Kala Black Journeyman Acoustic Electric U-Bass
Description
The Kala Black Journeyman Acoustic-Electric U-Bass is a striking, gig-ready compact bass designed to deliver massive, upright-style low-end response in a highly portable format. Styled after classic archtop instruments with dual f-holes and a sleek matte black finish accented by cream binding, this mahogany-bodied instrument features a Venetian cutaway for smooth access to the upper frets. Strung with factory Kala Metal Round Wound strings on a short scale neck, it offers traditional bass playability and standard E-A-D-G tuning, while its onboard UK-500B preamp active electronics make it stage-ready right out of the box.
