CLEARANCE Big Island EBU-SMP-N Electric Bass Ukulele in gigbag

This Big Island electric ukulele is a real stunner. Just look at this fantastic bit of kit! Sadly, on its way to a new owner it received an almighty bruise (massive chip) by the courier... Since then it has sat on the shelf throughout the pandemic looking sorry for itself. It really needs a new home. Aside from the obvious issue with the headstock the instrument works and behaves like a new instrument albeit one that has hung on display for more than a year.

The electric bass ukulele is a solid, heavyweight instrument with real bass mojo. It's the heaviest bass ukulele that we've ever stocked and it feels pretty indestructible in the hand. It has a nice wide neck too. This means you have the space to slap, tap and pop while you play.

The magnetic pickup gives a really authentically bass guitar kind of sound, so banish thoughts of the low woody thump you get with hollowbody uBass type instruments. Think instead of a brighter, more contemporary tone. There's also tone control on board, so you can dial in more or less treble as you see fit. However, you won't be able to dial the sharper attack that you get out of the sound.

The instrument shown in the instrument is the one you will receive.
