Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The EHB5MSBSP is a right-handed, five-string headless bass with a multi-scale layout and chambered EHB ergonomic body. A slanted rear surface and scooped cut are designed to keep the instrument close to the body and make upper-fret access easier. Fishman Fluence pickups connect to a 3-band EQ, Voice Select switch, and Single Coil Mode switch, giving you several electronic settings at hand. Its MR5HS bridge provides broad intonation adjustment and adjustable string spacing; luminescent side dots and Schaller S-Locks are also fitted.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Extended sets and practice sessions supported by the chambered, ergonomic headless design.
- Players who want to change Fishman pickup voices and engage Single Coil Mode from the bass.
- Technical playing that uses the scooped cut for easier access to upper frets.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players.
- Players who want a four-string, non-headless bass.
