Martin BC-16E Acoustic Electric Bass Guitar

*stock photo, wood grain will vary

The brand new US made Martin BC-16E acoustic electric bass is a blast to play! The relatively thin body is comfy to hold, and even unplugged it puts out plenty of sound. Plugged in with the Fishman VT Enhance pickup system and it sounds stellar! Acoustic basses can be notorious for being unwieldy and at the same tome rather muted in tone, but this thing is an absolute tone cannon and very easily one of the most comfortable acoustic basses I've played.

Manufacturer's Description:

The Martin BC-16E acoustic-electric bass is ideal if you love to write and practice on an unplugged bass but also need the option to plug it in to record or play live with your band. The BC-16E includes a solid Sitka spruce top, East Indian rosewood back and sides, and forward shifted scalloped bracing to deliver deep, thumping Martin tone whether you are plugged in or using the built-in Fishman® electronics. It also includes a fast, comfortable neck so you can keep the rhythm section tight. The BC-16E is strung with Martin Authentic Acoustic Bass Strings.
