Leo Fender gave the world arguably the greatest bass guitar ever in the Fender Precision and followed that up 9 years later with another great bass, the Jazz. My Review: You simply can’t think about bass guitars without thinking of Fender. With its classic Fender style and warm woody tone, the Kingman V2 is one of the best acoustic basses you can get for the price. It is a great addition for bassists who are looking for a unique option to add to their arsenal.īottom Line: The Kingman V2 is one of the top acoustic basses available for players today. Target Customer: The acoustic capabilities are certainly helpful for jamming with friends or for use in quieter situations. The Viking walnut bridge and the Graph Tech NuBone nut transfer the sound perfectly. With 3-band EQ controls, a tuner, and volume, notch, brilliance, and phase controls, it’s certainly one of the most in-depth preamps on any acoustic guitar.

It has a Fishman pickup and preamp on board to help you plug in and keep up with the band.

Classic Fender block inlays decorate the fretboard. The neck is topped with a walnut fretboard and 20 frets. The mahogany neck is also shaped like that of a Jazz Bass, with a C-shaped profile and a scale length of 30”. It has a cool Jazz Bass-shaped headstock which brings out the Fender vibe even more. The top is made of solid spruce, with laminated mahogany used for the sides and back. This means the body is a little smaller than a full-size acoustic, and its sculpted cutaway and curves feel great while playing. Key Specs and Features: The Kingman V2 borrows its auditorium shape from Fender’s Newporter acoustic guitar. It can hold its own in heavier settings, but mellower moods give the increased mids and highs a chance to shine. As the bass doesn’t have that bassy punch as some other heavier electric basses I feel it is probably best suited for pop or rock music. The bass has a unique vibe and a warm natural tone. The shape they borrowed from the Fender’s Newporter acoustic guitar, just hits the spot with me. The Kingman comes with a stylish construction and serious sound. My Review: Another Fender on the list, It is no surprise With legendary models like the Precision Bass and Jazz Bass, Fender has earned its reputation as the bass world’s premier manufacturer.
