These Ampeg BB-4’s were a major building block in the transformation of the upright bass, and sport many unique design appointments that far exceed what you’d expect for the period they were built in. The uvex plastic body is fully insulated with foam to completely eliminate feedback, and is fitted with a very straightforward transducer pickup and 1/4" input with dual control knobs. This cello sized body is also fitted with a solid maple neck and ebony fingerboard, for the traditional playability of an upright bass, but packed into a smaller package. This one has been fully inspected and is functioning properly. It will ship in a contemporary ampeg gigbag, ready to play as soon as you get your hands on it.
