The Ukulele Bass Format: The Sound of a Large Bass in a Small Body
Designed to offer the depth of a double bass in an ultra-compact instrument, the Tiki Bass Fretless Pan-Cut Electro follows the line of modern mini basses. Its luthiery combines a responsive solid top and a mahogany body for a natural sound, ready to play at home, in the studio, or on stage.
For Which Musician and Styles?
Perfect for bassists from beginners to advanced players seeking an easy-to-handle bass, quiet acoustically but formidable when plugged in. It excels in acoustic and "unplugged" contexts (folk, pop, bossa, jazz, world), small stages, and rehearsals where a full low end without bulk is desired.
Sound Characteristics
The solid spruce top provides projection and a clear attack, while the mahogany back and sides warm up the low end. The short scale 20.16" / 512 mm and fretless fingerboard favor the "mwah," slides, and a singing sustain. When plugged in, the piezo pickup faithfully reproduces the woody timbre and roundness of the Aquila Thunderblack strings; the 3-band EQ allows for a range from a very "upright" and mellow sound to a more defined and punchy register.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To preserve tone and intonation, choose a replacement set of Aquila Thunderblack 171U strings identical to the original setup. Add a quality 6.35 mm instrument jack cable to get the best from the built-in preamp. The included padded gig bag effectively protects the instrument during transport.
