2013 Fender Kingman Acoustic/Electric Bass Guitar

Overview: Hey, it's a newer Fender acoustic bass! It handles nicely and sounds pretty decent unplugged. It's loud enough to hang with a couple buddies around a campfire but really what it wants is to be jacked-in and used like all those '90s "unplugged" session acoustic bass guitars, which is where it shines. I did an acoustic video just so you can hear what one of these is like in your lap -- perfectly acceptable and they record nicely, too. There are plenty of videos out there for what these sound like jacked-in.


Repairs included: Max just gave this a good level/dress of the frets to remove inconsistencies in the fretting and then set it up. It's playing like a champ and ready to go.

It comes with: No case, sorry.
