    De-fretting my Ubass

    so, I've been happy with my ubass, still am. I've been thinking about de-fretting it to play it as a fretless, seems easy enough to do, and the bass was like $200 after taxes, so I'm not super worried about it going awry. Has anyone here ever done that before? I'm all for doing plenty of...

    Piezo pickup on Kala SUB UBass not consistent across all strings - common issue?

    Hi guys, I hope you can help me. I've just bought myself a Kala SUB UBass to try and get back into playing bass since a worsening of my disability which makes regular basses too big and heavy for me to play. I've never had a UBass before, and I'm really digging it, it's so cool and compact to...

    Kala Ubass Hutch Hutchingson Problems

    Here is a list of solutions to various issues with my 2013 Kala Ubass Hutch Hutchingson. When I bought it, I played it mostly acoustic with the original Pahoehoe strings. I did check intonation, but I did not do a thorough testing of the piezo. That was a big mistake. Almost a year later, I...

    Kala Ubass tuned in 5ths?

    Any ideas on this? I saw a great cellist using the NS electric fretted cello and thought it might be interesting to try in on my Ubass. It would be tuned (low to high) G-D-A-E. Could be an interesting experiment, not sure what strings I could use. Any ideas?

    Kala Ubass restring question

    Hi guys, first post (be gentle:)) I got a new set of strings for my solid body Ubass- D'Addario EJ88UB. The black strings, which I assume were stock (bought it used), sounded terrible. These are much better. Beige strings on a black bass look better than I thought they would. Ok, the question...
