Kala U-Bass Demo

[mrbassman]

Lots of recorded jams with this instrument on youtube, sounds great for jazz and acoustic blues... im impressed, definately would buy the more expensive model

nice upright sound. I own a Ubass. it sounds cool when play alone, but no band members will even allow this sound as a band. i guess Ubass does a lot of advertisements with bass players endorsement, the problem is none of these players actually perform or record with the Ubass as their main axe... it's only all the namm performance... we need really testimonies of the performing UBass.

The only reason I would own this is to practise for fun in bed or something. It sounds like ass and has absolutely no tone whatsoever.

Call it what you like but that upright sound you mean is just all the lack of character from an electric bass, toned down and dulled. Sounds like the strings are made from wet socks.

I appreciate what you've tried to do here mate but it's not a jam instrument or anything, and I'd hazard a guess you can't hear the thing in anything but a dead silent room.

The only reason for the acoustic body is to get it to produce any kind of sound at that scale to amplify via the mic.

You should advertise it for what it is, a practise instrument/kids instrument. And price it accordingly.
