Product Description

A great bass for beginners starting out or for those with smaller hands, the Junior Bass is a 30-inch scale, 20-fret bass with a solid alder body. A maple bolt-on neck, rosewood fingerboard, and cutaway for fret access make it super-playable. Quality electronics, hardware, and factory setup mean it'll stay that way.

The Fleabass
"If they don't play great, they're not going to the stores. We'll set up every one and make sure it's perfect." --Flea

The Fleabass is made out of Flea's desire to offer musicians an instrument that they can fall in love with. They are affordable, play beautifully, and they will only get better in time. Each instrument is individually set up by Fleabass technicians and is delivered in a high-quality gigbag with a cable.

Choose Your Weapon
The Junior Bass is crafted in 4 bright color combinations with a high gloss finish. The colors were chosen and named by Flea: Sunny, Punk, Water, and The Wild One.

The Sunny Junior Bass features an orange finish with yellow pickguard. The Punk Junior Bass is bright green with a pink pickguard. The Water Junior Bass is (you guessed it) blue with an orange pickguard, and The Wild One Junior Bass features the classic black with white pickguard look.

High-Quality Instruments
Looks aren't everything. Each Junior Bass was designed for excellent sustain and brilliant, rich tone. Featuring a solid alder body with string-thru-body design, they look clean and sound clean. A custom-designed pickup and quality passive electronics give you strong, punchy lows and a glossy high-end.

The Junior Bass features a 30-inch scale, 20-fret solid maple neck with a smooth rosewood fingerboard. The contoured body at the neck pocket affords easy access for the higher frets.

Add great hardware like the heavy-duty chrome bridge/tailpiece and classic open-gear elephant ear tuning machines, and you've got a simple short-scale bass that simply rocks.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Guitar, cosmetic issues, January 14, 2011

This review is from: Fleabass Junior 3/4 Size Bass Guitar 30 Scale Orange and Yellow (Sunny) (Electronics)

Overall, this guitar is a good buy for the price. The sound is bright and punchy and the 3/4 size is great for women who have small hands. The accompanying gig bag is also made with quality material and is not the generic bag I expected. The only real complaint I have is with the paint job. The back of the guitar has a few cosmetic defects. Where the neck attaches, the paint around the bolts is rough and raised, like the neck was bolted on right after painting while the guitar was still wet. Also, there is some paint on the back plate.

If you have a young child who wants to explore playing the bass guitar you'd be hard pressed to find a better choice than the Fleabass. Flea, from Red Hot Chile Peppers, is behind this signature bass guitar in 3/4 scale and it's cooler than any other bass your kid will ever see. Giving this for xmas made me a hero to my 6 yr old son. It also comes with a great backpack style case and electric cable. Fleas has a series of instructional DVDs that are geared towards kids too. These are sold separately but worth the extra cash.
