Modern Bass Guitars

Some people may look at these basses and think they are ‘rock bass guitars’ or ‘metal bass guitars’ but actually a lot of these basses are great for almost any style. With powerful active preamps and sometimes active pickups, these basses are made to mould to whatever the situation needs.

With brands like Ibanez, Warwick, Spector and Yamaha making basses at every price point that deliver great playability and wide versatility. These have quickly become favourites of touring and session musicians who never know what they may be playing next.

That need for versatility also means that you can pick up a lot of these basses in 4 string, 5 string and even 6 string options without having to shell out for a huge premium.
