Godin A4 Ultra Fretless Natural A/E Bass w/Gig Bag *Authorized Dealer*

The Godin A4 Ultra Bass is what every bass player has been waiting for. Sporting a lace sensor pickup, saddle transducers and a 13-pin synth input, the sonic possibilities are virtually endless. No matter what kind of group you're in, the A4 Ultra will make you the king of the rhythm section.

This Godin A4 Ultra Fretless Bass features:

  • Rock Maple neck
  • Richlite fretboard
  • 16" fingerboard radius
  • 34 " Scale
  • 1 1/2" nut width
  • Chambered Maple body
  • Solid Spruce Top
  • Lace Sensor low profile electric pickup
  • Side mounted volume & tone controls for electric pickup
  • Custom Godin Saddle Transducers and with 3-band EQ
  • Natural Semi-Gloss
  • Godin deluxe gig bag
  • Made in Canada

In our experience, Godin has long been the premier name in hybrid acoustic/electric instruments. Most of their products are geared towards guitar players but the A4 Ultra Bass is a real treat. Upright basses are bulky and hard to haul, and it's tough to find any solid body that comes close to that sultry tone. With its two-part chambered body the A4 has a warm acoustic sound that will make your audience do a double take. The A4 features two ways to play: It has a Lace sensor pickup, and individual acoustic saddle transducers. Here is a quick breakdown of the range of control possibilities:

 

Mix jack only (both pickup and bridge transducer):

  • Guitar volume slider becomes a blend of magnetic and bridge
  • Side knob volume closest to player becomes a master volume for magnetic pickup and bridge

Both inputs:

  • Guitar volume slider controls volume of bridge
  • Side knob volume closest to player controls volume and tone of the magnetic pickup

By blending the Lace pickup and bridge transducers the A4 can sound warm, woody and acoustic, or spanky and funky like an electric bass. 

The Godin A4 bass is the epitome of what Godin does best: Pack a ton of useable and unique features into a high quality package, and offer it at a reasonable price. For jazz, small combo, world music, or general business band the A4 just kills it.
