Essential Information About the Tiki Guitar 118 Mini Electro-Acoustic Bass Guitar

• Built-in electronics: discreet Lâg mini preamp with integrated tuner for playing on stage, rehearsals, or at home.

A mini bass with a bold design, made for traveling musicians

The Tiki Guitar 118 stands out with a decidedly "nomadic" approach: a reduced size, immediate comfort, and a strong visual personality. Its glossy black finish, enhanced with mahogany purfling and maple inlays, gives it a high-end look that contrasts with the usually more understated compact formats.

For whom and for which styles?

Thanks to its mini size and natural playability, this electro-acoustic bass is perfect for bassists seeking a backup, travel, or rehearsal instrument without sacrificing a true low register. The fretless playing requires some ear and precision: it is ideally suited for an intermediate level (or a motivated beginner), and shines particularly in jazz, soul, reggae, acoustic pop, world music, and "unplugged" settings.

The sound

The solid red cedar top delivers a quick response and warm grain, with a nice presence in the low mids: perfect for adding body to notes, even on a small format. The sapelli body and neck balance the whole with clean projection and defined lows, while the walnut fingerboard enhances the soft and organic character of fretless playing. Factory-strung with Aquila Thunderblack strings, it offers a smooth feel and a rich tone; once plugged in, the fretless character can evoke the spirit of a double bass, especially on round lines and slides.

Recommended compatible accessories

To maintain the original feel and response, a set of Aquila Thunderblack strings (same gauge/model) is recommended when replacing strings. A gig bag is included, practical for protecting the instrument daily and simplifying transport.
