5 String Bass Guitars

Let’s go low. A 5-string bass guitar lets you unlock an exciting extension to your range, adding a powerful low B string to anchor your grooves, riffs, and chords with awesome depth and resonance. Perfect for heavy metal, R&B, jazz, or prog, this versatile instrument is an essential tool for bassists who crave extra low-end power.

The slightly wider neck may take some getting used to, but the payoff is immense: richer harmonies, enhanced versatility, and access to sonic depth that shakes the room.
