Outstanding Traveler Acoustic Bass for the Road

The Traveler Guitar Ultra-Light Bass is a lightweight, compact acoustic-electric bass guitar that has been stripped down to the essentials, so you can play while on the go without lugging your full-size bass. The Ultra-Light Bass features an all-maple body, and a short-scale (30-inch) neck with a smooth maple fingerboard offers wonderful feel and playability. In addition, an under-saddle piezo pickup provides outstanding amplified acoustic bass tone when you plug in. Sweetwater bassists love the Traveler Guitar Ultra-Light Bass for its quality design, sound, and portability.

This axe was made for bass players on the go

When you pick up an Ultra-Light Bass, your search for the ultimate portable acoustic-style bass guitar is officially over. Your Ultra-Light Bass can easily fit in your luggage, backpack, or the overhead rack on the plane. What's more, it comes with its own custom, low-profile gig bag! And since there's no folding, fussing, or frustrating assembly required, you'll reach your destination ready to rock.

Ditch the bulk, keep the scale length

The Traveler Guitar Ultra-Light Bass gives you something that virtually no other travel-friendly bass can promise: real full-scale feel. That's because the Ultra-Light Bass's unique design loses the access bulk of a traditional bass, without cutting down the scale length. That's how Traveler Guitar managed to fit a 30"-scale bass in an instrument that's only 33-3/4" long. And you don't even need to buy special strings!

Piezo pickup system delivers huge acoustic bass sound

Here's probably the hardest thing to wrap your head around about the super-portable Ultra-Light Bass — it sounds huge! That's because Traveler Guitar decided to outfit their Ultra-Light Bass with an impressive electronics system. This system includes a highly sensitive under-saddle piezo pickup element, which translates the Ultra-Light Bass's natural acoustic resonance into the sound of a full-sized instrument. You won't believe how great this pint-sized bass sounds!

Traveler Guitar Ultra-Light Bass Guitar Features:

  • Compact acoustic-electric bass guitar with a 30-inch scale length
  • All-maple body is lightweight and resonant
  • Stellar acoustic tone via under-saddle piezo pickup
  • Detachable arm and leg rests for comfort while playing
  • Smooth maple fingerboard offers wonderful feel and playability
