Designed for straightforward performance, this passive bass features a humbucking bridge pickup and a single toaster knob for volume control. Reliable with a good punch to it, the Dart I is perfect for playing in the (back) pocket.
Sporting a vintage-inspired Sterling body with a slightly slimmer neck profile, the Dart delivers a timeless tone in a comfortable package, enhanced by the warmth of the soft maple tonewood body.
The Joe Dart Artist Series bass, a collaboration with Vulfpeck’s famed bassist, proves there's power in simplicity. A blank canvas, it embodies the no-frills philosophy of the original Ernie Ball Music Man design—distraction-free and fitted with flatwound strings for the smoothest feel. Built for the joy of playing.
