Key Features
The 3/4 Size Electric Double Bass by Gear4music is designed for portable upright practice, rehearsals, and amplified performance. Built in a traditional 3/4 format, it provides the familiar scale and playing position many double bass players prefer. A maple neck and ebonised maple fingerboard offer a smooth playing surface, while the adjustable bridge allows you to set the string height to suit your technique.
A piezo pickup mounted beneath the bridge feeds an onboard active preamp with volume and bass controls, helping you shape a clear upright-style tone through an amp or interface. For quieter sessions, the headphone output and aux input let you practise along with backing tracks. With a bow, waist rest, soft bag, and cable included, you can start practising or rehearsing straight away.
Product Ref: 38549
This electric double bass follows a familiar 3/4 size format, offering the scale length and string spacing upright players expect. The waist rest provides a natural contact point when seated, helping recreate the feel of an acoustic instrument. An adjustable endpin lets you set the playing height comfortably, whether you're practising at home or performing on stage.
A piezo strip pickup sits beneath the ebonised maple bridge, capturing the vibration of the strings directly. This design produces a focused, natural-style tone that translates well through amplifiers, PA systems, or recording interfaces. The active onboard preamp keeps things simple, with volume and bass controls that let you adjust your sound quickly during practice or rehearsal.
Practising upright bass can be challenging in shared spaces, so this model includes a headphone output for silent playing. An auxiliary input also allows you to connect a phone or music player and practise alongside tracks or exercises. Both signals feed through the main output and headphones, making it easy to rehearse timing, intonation, and repertoire.
Weighing around 4.4 kg and supplied with a carry bag, this electric double bass is easier to transport between lessons, rehearsals, and gigs than a traditional acoustic upright. A bow, waist rest, and cable are included, so you have everything needed to get started straight away. There’s also a strap lock on the back if you prefer to use a double bass strap for standing performances.
Music is for everyone, so we’re making it easier for you to start playing. Backed by our years of professional experience, the Gear4music range gives you access to a vast collection of instruments, audio gear and accessories. Produced ethically and responsibly, they're suitable for every musical interest while meeting the expectations of a caring world. There’s never been a better time to start making music.
