Kala UBASS-SP-MAPL-FS Spalted Maple Acoustic-Electric U•BASS
Kala Spalted Maple Acoustic-Electric U•BASS® (UBASS-SP-MAPL-FS)
Deep tone. Wild grain. Compact and commanding.
The Kala Spalted Maple U•BASS® isn’t just an instrument—it’s a statement. With its naturally dramatic spalting—like Mother Nature scribbled art across the maple—this bass draws attention before you even pluck a note. The sleek black binding ties it all together, giving it a refined edge to match its organic flair.
Plug it in or play it acoustic—the tone is rich, warm, and resonant, with focused low frequencies, excellent clarity, and long, singing sustain. Whether you’re holding down the groove at a backyard jam or laying tracks in the studio, this U•BASS® gives you the low-end depth of a full-sized bass in a road-friendly size.
