After an initial run in 2015, the Orange O Bass is back with some tweaks, both big and small, to cement its position as one of the easiest-playing, most colourful, and most versatile bass guitars out there. With the best bits of the original O Bass retained, there’s the classic single cutaway body shape and the split-coil pickup positioned slightly more neckwards than most other basses, all the better for producing that deep, warm growl.
- New binding has been added all round the instrument to give a premium feel
- Headstock is now coloured black on both the orange and black models for a timeless, classic look
- West African okoumé wood and a fretboard now made from super-durable purpleheart balance the instrument to perfection whether it's played standing up or seated
- Fretwork and neck moulding have been retooled with playability in mind, allowing for more natural jumping around the neck and funky octave swoops
