1960’s Supro Pocket Bass - Black

The 1960s Supro Pocket Bass is a rare and highly collectible vintage instrument that perfectly captures the bold, experimental spirit of mid-century American design. Built by Supro during the golden age of Valco manufacturing, this compact bass delivers a surprisingly rich, punchy tone that belies its small size. Its lightweight, short-scale construction makes it incredibly comfortable to play, while the original single-coil pickup produces warm, thumpy low-end with a distinctive vintage character ideal for garage rock, blues, and retro-inspired recordings.

Visually, the Pocket Bass stands out with its quirky body shape, classic finishes, and unmistakable 1960s aesthetic—making it as much a conversation piece as a musical tool. Whether you're a collector seeking a unique addition, a studio musician chasing authentic vintage tones, or a player who appreciates offbeat gear with personality, the Supro Pocket Bass offers both style and substance in one compact package.

This Supro bass is in good condition for being over 60 years old. There is some very evident playwear for the age and you can visibly see in the pictures. But overall, it plays good, sounds good, and is an eye-catcher for anyone looking for a nice piece of music history. Who knows who might have owned this bass throughout the years. Comes with a hard shell case decorated with many extras as you can see!
