Orange BG-O-BASS-ORA O Bass: 4 String Electric Bass
Your rocking Vintage thoughts are going all out
Orange isn’t all about amps. Birthed from the mind of Adrian Emsley, the company's technical director, the O-Bass shines with vintage appeal and retro radiance that make it the perfect bass for vintage voice chasers. The O-Bass stands as a proud amalgamation of Emsley’s bass knowledge acquired over a lifetime of hands-on experience modding and designing basses. Finally, he landed upon pure gold — rather, pure orange. Built from a lightweight and resonant okoume body, maple neck, and purpleheart fingerboard, this sleek and shapely bass has thrilled players of all fields with its insatiable custom-wound split-coil humbucker tone.
