OK, IT'S NOT A UKE, BUT HERE'S A VERY COOL BASS THAT EVERYONE IS RE-DISCOVERING!

BRAND NEW FENDER ASHBORY BASS in GLOSS BLACK

  • FREE SETUP
  • FREE DELUXE GIG-BAG

OUT OF STOCK MOST PLACES, BUT NOT HERE!

The Ashbory Bass brings back what was referred to as "the epitome of originality: the most innovative bass guitar ever created" in Guild's® 1987 literature. The 18" fretless scale and super lightweight body make it easy to create the growl of an upright or the punch of a standard electric bass. The patented Ashworth transducer and the silicone rubber strings are what make the Ashbory so unique, but the sound for live and recording applications is what makes it a necessity for any recording studio and a treat for any live performance. Available in Black, Frost Red, and Moon Blue. A sturdy, specially designed gig bag is included.

The Ashbory bass, designed & developed in 1985 by Alun Ashworth-Jones and Nigel Thornbory, is an 18" scale fretless (but marked) electric bass. This scale is just over half of the 34" scale of an ordinary bass guitar.  Originally produced by Guild, Fender once again offers this bass to players who are tired of playing the countless clones of the same old instruments. Its solid one-piece body and neck is just 30" long, and weighs in at only 2 pounds. Its small size allows for easy portability, and makes it comfortable enough to wear over another instrument. And, its signature silicone rubber strings produce a low-end response to rival that of any upright bass.

The Ashbory Bass has master volume, bass and treble controls, and features active circuitry that allows an array of varying tones. For the punchy sound of a standard electric bass, turn up the treble and pluck the strings close to the bridge. For that true acoustic bass sound, simply adjust the on-board bass and treble by turning them all the way up. And with the Ashbory's patented preamp powered transducer, any configuration will yield an exceptionally low signal-to-noise ratio.

The 18" scale length of the Ashbory's neck, with its much smaller than standard frets, allows players to make reaches that would otherwise be impossible with an upright. This lets bassists play faster than ever before, without sacrificing any of the clean tones that are associated with the acoustic upright bass.

The Ashbory has a fretless, silk-screen fingerboard pattern with fret markers and "dot" inlays, and features a wholly unique headstock design fitted with Custom Designed tuners.

These just arrived today!--Another very cool bass that's definitely unique.  When plugged in, these sound just like an upright acoustic bass!  Great for blues/jazz, bluegrass...  This instrument is designed for portability & packs a heck of a punch!  "Wow factor" is in BIG supply with the Ashbory Bass.

Comparison in size between an Ashbory Bass (blue) and a standard sized bass guitar.
