Shape Your Tone with Active Electronics

At the heart of the Bongo 4 HH's vast tonal range are its dual Ernie Ball humbucking pickups and 18V preamp. The pickups capture deep lows, punchy mids and clear highs which you can then sculpt using the 4-band EQ. Dial in throaty growl for rock, tight slap tones for funk or round warmth for jazz. The preamp's high voltage and Neodymium magnets give each setting authoritative presence. With this innovative electronics suite, you'll achieve any sound you can imagine.

All components including the neck, frets, pickups and electronics are securely mounted to prevent rattling at high volumes. The Bongo 4 HH bass comes protected in a custom form-fit hardshell case, ensuring it reaches every gig in perfect condition.
