    Strings don't fit a UBass

    I just got a Kala Passenger UBass and I don't really like the strings it comes with. They're sticky and the E string has a weird kind of polytone that the other strings don't have. So I got some Pahoehoe UBass strings that seem to be well-liked here. The E string went in fine, but the others...

    Double Thump U-Bass Groove and Lesson

    It's weird to play upstrokes with the thumb on the rubber strings (fingernails add friction and stick at times), but I still thought it would be cool to try. Let me know if you have any questions about the lesson. Thanks, Stephen

    Pickup on the Kala UBass

    Apologies for the numpty question... I have a Rumbler FS Ubass, bought 4-5 years ago and I have a question about the installed pickup, a shadow with built-in tuner & EQ. Is it likely to be a passive or active pickup? The fact that it's powered means I thought it was active, but it's that just...

    Donner Ubass anyone?

    Does anyone have any experience with this thing? It’s highly rated on Amazon, and only $165. One review mentions high action. Can the bridge be pulled out and filed down? I did that on my acoustic guitar and it did wonders.
