Product Description The Dean EAB Acoustic-Electric Bass is a full-sized bass guitar that produces a deeper, fuller tone than basses costing much more. 34" scale, easy-playing neck. Case sold separately. From the Manufacturer Here's a versatile acoustic-electric bass from Dean. It's perfect for a beginner looking to enjoy some acoustic, living-room jams, but still features a Dean preamp for plugging into your favorite bass amp or recording gear. The EAB features a spruce top, mahogany body, rosewood bridge and fretboard, pearl dot inlays, and legendary Dean construction and playability, at an affordable price. Mahogany Body With Spruce Top The Mahogany/Spruce combo is a pretty common choice in acoustic tonewoods, whether for basses or guitars. Mahogany boasts a wide dynamic range, perfect for ampifying your nuance and still sounding good when you lay into it. The spruce accentuates the bass and treble end of things. It's all finished up in a classic black glossy finish, that shows you mean business. 34-Inch Mahogany Neck The EAB features a mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard, and classic pearl dot inlays. It boasts a rosewood bridge to match, with a contemporary "sliver" shape that's all Dean. Celluloid Binding and Rosette Speaking of looks, the EAB has plenty, enhanced by the celluloid rosette and body binding. Dean Tuners Dean diecast tuners complete the hardware ensemble, ensuring you stay in tune even when you're plugged in and rocking out. Dean Passive Preamp The EAB sounds great on its own, but sometimes you want to turn things up a bit (or plug into an audio interface for recording, perhaps). The onboard Dean preamp offers basic volume and tone controls to dial in just the sound you need.
