Artist APG Black Bass Guitar w/ Pickguard & Accessories
Sporting a classic three-ply white pickguard that perfectly contrasts its gloss black finish, the APG is the ideal beginner's instrument. It delivers a striking vintage aesthetic and a punchy, professional sound that makes you look the part and sound great from day one.
Iconic Tone & Multi-Genre Versatility
At the heart of the APG is a premium split single-coil pickup configuration. This classic electronic layout delivers the iconic, deep, and driving bass tone heard on countless hit records across the decades. The solid poplar body allows for incredible resonance, making this bass exceptionally versatile and suited for any playing style, whether you are diving into funk, blues, slap, classic rock'n'roll, or anything in between.
Smooth Playability & Reliable Hardware
We believe a high-quality instrument is essential for kicking off your musical career properly. The APG features a smooth satin-finished maple neck paired with a responsive eco-rosewood fingerboard, designed explicitly to be easy on beginner hands. Underneath, a dual-action two-way truss rod lets you easily counteract seasonal weather adjustments, while chrome open-geared clover-style machine heads offer stable, dependable tuning that keeps you playing longer with fewer interruptions.
Accessories Included!
- Artist APG Full-Size Electric Bass Guitar (Black)
- TN75 Clip-On Digital Bass Tuner
- Fitted Gig Bag to protect your instrument
- Webbed Guitar Strap & Instrument Cable
- Spare Set of Bass Strings
- Guitar Picks & Setup Adjustment Keys
Recommended Age & Height: 12+ Years, 150cm +
This full-size electric bass guitar package is recommended for adults and children aged 12+ who are over 150cm tall.
These recommendations are guidelines designed to ensure a comfortable fit, rather than strict rules. Because physical build and ability vary, a younger player with a longer reach or advanced technique may easily handle an instrument outside their recommended age bracket.
