❓ Bass Guitar FAQs

Is a 4-string or 5-string bass better for beginners?

Most beginners start with a 4-string bass, as it’s easier to learn and more widely used. 5-string models are better for advanced styles needing extended range.

Do your basses come with accessories?

Some models may include a gig bag, strap, or cable. Check each product description for what's included or browse our accessories collection.

Can I use a bass amp with these guitars?

Yes — we recommend pairing with a dedicated bass amplifier for the best tone and low-end response. Many small practice amps also support bass.
