Kala U-Bass Solid Body 5-String Tobacco Burst UBASS
Kala U-Bass Solid Body 5-String Tobacco Burst | Compact Low-End Powerhouse
Instrument Type: Solid Body Electric 5-String Short-Scale Bass
Neck Specifications: Maple, comfortable C-shape profile, gloss finish, spoke wheel truss rod adjustment
Body Material: Solid Okoume hardwood body, single-ply white pickguard
Pickup Configuration: Classic passive split-coil humbucker pickup
Hardware & Bridge: Top-loaded 5-saddle fixed black bridge, closed-gear black bass tuners with 1:18 ratio
Scale & Nut Width: 23.5" scale length, 1.75" (44.45 mm) PPS nut width
Extended Sonic Range and Fingerboard Structural Configurations
Contoured Okoume Chassis and Dual-Fingerboard Navigation Options
Engineered with an ergonomic, offset solid okoume hardwood body shape, this 5-string model introduces an extra-low B string to drastically broaden low-frequency arrangement possibilities within a travel-friendly layout. This shared listing accommodates two distinct physical playing profiles across a stable laurel fingerboard surface to suit varying stylistic tracking demands. The fretted configuration features twenty-two pocketed frets with standard nickel-silver sizing to guarantee pristine mechanical intonation, providing clear note boundaries ideal for rapid funk lines, aggressive pop techniques, and sharp note articulation. Conversely, the fretless configuration removes physical fret wire entirely, substituting twenty-two flush, high-visibility white line markers along the edge to allow smooth sliding glissandos, continuous microtonal micro-adjustments, and a woody, upright-bass style acoustic bloom with extended organic decay.
Passive Humbucking Circuitry and Heavy Gauge String Dynamics
The electronics array is built around a single, high-output passive split-coil humbucker designed to produce a thick, muscular low-end footprint devoid of unwanted single-coil single-ended 60-cycle hum. Handled by a direct master volume knob and a dedicated master tone potentiometer, the passive tone-shaping circuit rolls off upper-mid crispness to replicate traditional doghouse acoustic bass thump or opens up full frequency bandwidth for punchy, pick-driven rock lines. String tension is locked down by a top-loaded black five-saddle bridge assembly that optimizes string-to-body kinetic energy transfer across the short 23.5-inch scale length. Spaced uniformly at the 1.75-inch premium PPS nut, the custom factory roundwound strings deliver consistent mechanical resistance and stable tension matrix parameters, regulated smoothly via black 18:1 high-ratio closed die-cast tuning machines.
