Blurring the line between tradition and innovation, the Ibanez Bass Workshop UB804 4-string Electric Upright Bass is a modern marvel for bassists seeking the evocative tones of an upright bass with the familiar feel of an electric. Crafted with a 34-inch scale length, it invites electric bass players to explore upright techniques without a steep learning curve. The UB804’s maple body is compact yet projects a resonant, natural tone, perfect for seamless transitions between stages and studios.

At the heart of its sonic prowess is the AeroSilk piezo pickup system, an engineering feat that captures the airy essence of the upright bass. This system, integrated with the custom AeroSilk MR5 bridge, faithfully reproduces the subtleties of both fingerstyle and bowing, ensuring every note is precise and expressive. Moreover, its conical compound fingerboard radius is optimized for both arco and pizzicato techniques, offering a fluid playing experience.

Built for durability, the UB804 features a 5-piece maple/walnut neck and a jatoba fingerboard, enhancing stability and rich tonal clarity. For musicians on the go, the included TAMA Roadpro stand and padded gig bag make the UB804 a performance-ready instrument from the moment it arrives. Whether you're expanding your sonic palette or seeking a portable upright alternative, the UB804 delivers upright expression with electric ease.
