First introduced in 1961, this marvelous short-scale bass pays tribute to the rare vintage model that started it all. Its unique body shape sends out waves of vintage appeal while also making for a comfortable playing experience. This rockin’ Newporter sports a body and neck constructed from mahogany that’s full of warmth and sustain with two humbuckers that output plenty of rich tones and a set of knobs to control volume, tone, and blend.
