A great-sounding acoustic bass that plays as easily as your solid-body electric bass does!
From deep within the cavernous and labyrinthine Research and Development Department down at Fender headquarters,
they come up with this totally new take on the acoustic bass guitar—designed for the discerning bassist, yet friendly
to guitarists, too. From its Jazz Bass guitar headstock, neck shape, strap button, and machine heads, it feels like home to
the electric bassist, but it embodies all the deep and rich tones acoustic players look for. With a solid spruce top, traditional
bridge, gold pickguard, and lusciously bound fingerboard with eye-catching block position inlays, this bass is destined to
make groundbreaking music!
The Onboard Fishman Aero Active Preamp transfers the natural acoustic bass tone of the Kingman
and features the Fishman Sonicore pickup; integrated electronic tuner with LED display; and On/Off switch, volume, bass, mid,
treble, phase switch, and low battery indicator light. Operates on a standard 9-volt battery.
