Quake 5-String Bass
Extended Scale. Commanding Low End.
The Quake is a 36" extra-long-scale 5-string bass engineered for a powerful, articulate low end. The extended scale provides increased string tension and definition—especially on the low B—while the ergonomic body, balanced construction, and fast-playing neck keep the instrument comfortable and responsive. Designed as a customizable platform, the Quake delivers the authority of an extended-scale 5-string with clarity across the entire register.
