  • U Bass is my new favorite hobby!!!
This is my first U-Bass and I love it. I had previously tested out a cheaper $99 U-bass, and the sound quality was not good. I then tried a $400 U-bass and it sounded amazing. I wanted something in between.... And this Kala Scout is it. It sounds great. I think the value is really good, as I expect to be playing this for years. For being so small, it really is a legit bass. The thick rubber strings are totally different than anything else in the Ukulele family. I actually find it really easy to play. If you don't know, you WILL need a bass amp/speaker with a U-bass. The low notes do not carry far. When my wife plays her Ukulele, you can not hear the Scout without amplification. When playing alone, the acoustic sound is fine for practicing. 100% recommend for a first U-bass. ... show more

  • Fine instrument at bargain price.
I joined a ukulele group in our retirement center. While I had a top quality tenor to play, the group was missing a bass player. Having played standup bass in a blue grass group for many years, I jumped at the opportunity to add some bass to the group. They love it and so do I. I feed it into a top quality amp and get excellent results. This instrument does everything I could ask of it. The built in tuner is good. The instrument deserves a nice hard case for better protection and I am looking for one now. My main problem is that I am so hooked on playing this little bass, I never open the case of my beautiful tenor I bought in Hawaii for many times the cost of this bass! ... show more

  • Scout U-bass handy, light. Needs wound metal strings.
Been playing upright & Fender Jazz bass for years. Scout U-bass handy, light and a low-medium quality bass with unexpectedly one of the better playing necks. Original plastic strings tone was thin-weak acoustic, electric generally better but no cigar. Original Kala plastic strings are not for me (I'm picky) like playing wet noodles. :-( Replaced original noodle strings with Kala Metal Round Wound U-BASS Strings (KA-BASS-4). Wound metal strings made all the difference. Acoustically bass was better still weak -- but shines as an electric. Took (metal strung) bass to rehearsal, amplified did well. Other musicians tried it out, some did not want to give it back. :-) May have sold 2 more Scouts for for Kala. Upside: Great customer service from Ashton. Surprisingly good neck, OK price, light & small, handy carry bag Fits in my Mini-Cooper. Downside: Plastic strings, battery life short, poor to medium quality construction. needs a deeper cutaway. Update:-1 After writing review the 1/4" F-jack on bass went bad. Vendor will not ship replacement parts! To their credit vendor did PDQ ship entire replacement bass - Exchanged good 1/4 F-jack & shipped replacement unit back. Update-2: 1/4 jack was not the problem - This time went directly to Kala - good move. Kala consumer support is top flight. Within 2-3 working days problem diagnosed & PDQ shipped correct replacement parts. Customer support that actually supports the customer. (what a concept) . ... show more

  • I got more compliments for the sound than my studio bass
The sound is so rich and warm. We were looking to do a few unplugged sets… and I heard the U Bass is pretty amazing. It didn’t disappoint. Our sound engineer said you should dump your $1100 Yamaha studio bass and play the UBass all the time… this was echoed by many others. It’s a ton of fun to play… you can just pick it up and play, but plugged in is where it really shines. The rubber strings take so getting used to… and don’t stay in tune very long. A great buy for under $300. ... show more

  • Some poor finishes on an otherwise fun new instrument
This is the first ubass I’ve ever used and I’m enjoying the instrument. It’s a lot of fun to try to translate guitar skills to a ukulele. This Kala ubass had poorly finished frets. They are sharp, despite a hand written “30 point QC check” Playing it for a few hours has cut up my fingers a bit. I’ll need to work out how to file them down to allow me to playir return the instrument. If I had picked it up in a store, there’s no way I would have purchased it and it’s disappointing to end I with a repair job right off the bat. ... show more
