Kala Solid Body 5-String Sweet Cream Fretted U•BASS® UBASS-SB5-CR-FS with Laurel Fingerboard

The Kala Solid Body 5-String Sweet Cream Fretted U•BASS® UBASS-SB5-CR-FS blends retro-inspired style with powerful, compact bass performance. Designed for players who want extended range in a small, comfortable instrument, this model delivers full, warm bass tones from low B to high G.

Built with an okoume hardwood body, maple neck, and laurel fingerboard, this solid-body U•BASS® offers smooth playability and a balanced tonal response. The passive humbucker pickup provides warm, focused sound that works beautifully in rehearsals, live settings, and studio environments.

With a 23.5-inch scale length, this fretted U•BASS® maintains comfortable string tension and excellent control for fingerstyle, slap, or pick playing. The gloss Sweet Cream finish adds a clean, vintage-inspired look that stands out without being flashy.

Compact, versatile, and easy to transport, this instrument includes a custom Kala U•BASS® gig bag and is also compatible with the Gray Tweed Hard Case. Available from Ukulele Trading Co Australia, it is an excellent choice for bassists seeking big tone in a small format.
