The Dean Pace 4-String Electric Upright Bass streamlines a time-honored but enormous instrument into a transportable package that retains classic feel. Retaining the standard 35" scale, Dean's rendition features a solid maple neck providing plenty of presence and sustain bolstered by a piezo pickup with an onboard buffer preamp for total tonal command. An attractive option for rockabilly and jazz musicians living in the city who need to get around via public transportation.
