Gear Watch: Kala uBass 2 and Solid Acacia Models
Kala Brand Music has increased it’s uBass line by adding the uBass 2 and Solid Acacia models. The uBass is an instrument that fuses the strings and sound of a bass with the shape and size of a ukulele.
Both new models feature proprietary Polyurethane strings, a passive pickup system, a mahogany neck, and a Rosewood fingerboard with a matching bridge. The uBass 2, which was created as a more affordable version of the original, features a solid spruce top and comes with a padded gig bag. The other new model’s body is made of solid Acacia and comes with a deluxe hard case.
