# WAV Upright Basses

The NS Design WAV upright bass offers good tone and visual appeal at an incredibly affordable price. Lightweight and compact, it’s a great entry-level road instrument for the gigging bassist or a wonderful addition to any studio or classroom. WAV basses employ NS Design’s patented Polar™ pickup technology and include a polarity switch that allows you to quickly optimize your pickup for either plucked or bowed playing. Highly adjustable, from truss rod to bridge height to a support stand that tilts, raises and lowers, you’ll play in comfort while you travel in style! Available in 4 or 5-strings and four color options, including Amberburst, Transparent Red, Black and Brilliant White.
