Description
This 2022 Upton Bass Standard Plywood is a versatile, player-friendly instrument with a matte “shoe polish brown” finish. Built for durability and ease of play, it’s perfect for students, beginners, or gigging musicians looking for a reliable and approachable double bass.
Set up in its current condition with a Spirocore string set, the bass delivers a full-bodied sound that’s surprisingly rich and responsive, whether you’re playing pizzicato, slap, or straight jazz lines. The action is comfortable and forgiving, making it ideal for long practice sessions, folk jams, or bluegrass and jazz performances.
This Standard Plywood embodies the hallmark Upton quality: well-balanced, resilient, and ready for any player who wants a dependable instrument that feels good under the fingers and sounds great across styles.
This bass comes with ebony hat peg tuners. It has a little bit of gentle wear. It was Gary’s personal bass for a short time, until he switched to a five string.
