Example of AB49 acoustic Bass guitar
AB49 Acoustic Bass Guitar

 

This is a true acoustic bass guitar that really does what it says.

It has a very different design of bracing that allows the top to move at the much lower frequencies that an acoustic bass guitar needs.

The soundhole has been moved away from the centre to give a larger area for the bridge to “drive”, and the bridge saddle has been placed in the centre of the 17” lower bout.
