Elvis Costello
Elvis Costello's Bass Guitars
Elvis Costello is pictured with his vintage Kay K162 bass in an article by Otago Daily Times. The Kay K162, introduced in 1952, is notable for being the world’s first electric hollowbody bass and only the second electric bass ever made, following the Fender Precision Bass. This model was initially known as the K162 before being rebranded as the K5695 in 1959, with minor design changes. Often referred to as "The Howlin’ Wolf Bass," it gained popularity through Andrew “Blueblood” McMahon of the Howlin’ Wolf band.
