    Ibanez UB805 Mahogany Oil Burst 5 String Upright Bass

    Price Match - Found a Better Price?

    The UB's design (34" scale length) allows for a smooth transition from bass guitar to this particular upright. Its conical compound fingerboard radius perfectly facilitates smooth bowing and fast plucking. The compact Maple body was designed to balance form and function, resulting in a bass that provides outstanding visuals and incredible playability. Despite its compact body, the UB does not sacrifice acoustic tone, projecting a robust natural sound. The smaller body also allows for quick and easy transport.

    The Ibanez UB805 features the AeroSilk Piezo pickup custom for Upright bass. Whether bowing or finger picking, this specially modified piezo system detects the vibrations of the strings that vibrates in different shapes, and then outputs the signals at equalized level. The Jatoba has a reddish brown color which produces a rich mid range with a crisp high end. This comes with a padded gig bag which can carry everything in it, including the bass itself, bow and the TAMA® Roadpro stand that is included.
