Description

Ibanez UB804 MOB Upright Electric Bass

Despite its tiny body, the Ibanez UB804 MOB (Mahogany Oil Burst) – Upright Electric Bass does not sacrifice acoustic tone. The smaller body also contributes to superior portability and handling.The Aero Silk Piezo system is the Ibanez original piezo system, and enhances the acoustic “stand-up” quality of the sound. Ibanez have tuned this system to provide optimized performance on this upright bass. Whether bowing or finger picking, this specially modified piezo system detects the vibrations of the strings that vibrates in different shapes, and then outputs the signals at equalized level.

Like ordinary wood basses, players don’t have to switch the electronics no matter which playing style they go to. It enables players to switch their playing styles easily and quickly, which widens the possibility of performance. Its simplified control has 1 volume and 1 tone. The tone offers a wide range of control to create various sounds. The UB804 can be used in any style, any kind of music you play. The UB804 also comes with a TAMA Roadpro hardware stand. TAMA’s engineering designed the stand to securely hold the bass whilst delivering superior stability and durability.

Painted in black, the modest appearance of the stand matches the mature atmosphere of the UB804. The UB804 also comes with a padded gig bag that can carry everything in it, including the bass itself, bow and stand.
