Shipping note: Because upright basses are oversized, they ship by freight truck and do not qualify for free shipping. A flat $250 freight charge is added at checkout. Available for delivery in the continental US only.
Smooth Style, Sweet Sound
Firstly, the Cremona SB-2 Amber 1/4 Upright Bass is made for players who want comfort and clarity together. In fact, its arched-back construction and spruce top create a tone that’s warm, full, and ready to groove.
Compared to other student basses, this one stands out because of its premium steel strings and Tyrolean-style tuners with 24:1 ratio precision. And then, with an adjustable aged northern maple bridge and adjustable end pin, you’re always playing your way.
Crafted to Move and Impress
Secondly, the matte shaded amber finish gives the Cremona SB-2 Amber 1/4 Upright Bass a rich, classic look that shines on stage. Despite its solid construction with inlaid purfling and double kerfling, it’s still lightweight enough to carry in the included nylon gig bag.
To clarify, this bass features an ebonite fingerboard that feels smooth and fast, and its maple back and sides add a punchy resonance. Above all, at Terry Carter Music Store, we offer this beauty because we know it’s perfect for beginners and beyond.
What size player is a 1/4 bass for?
A 1/4 bass generally suits a player of about 8 to 11 years old, which is usually a height of 4 ft 8 in to 5 ft 0 in. Sizing follows the player's height and reach rather than age alone, so measure before choosing.
Upright bass sizes run, smallest to largest: 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4 — 3/4 is the standard full size for an upright bass.
The next size up is a 1/2 bass.
