The Fender Musicmaster Bass is a vintage, short-scale (30-inch) solid-body electric bass produced by Fender from late 1970 until 1982/1983 as an entry-level, budget-friendly companion to the Mustang Bass.
Overview & Description
Originally marketed toward students and beginners, the Musicmaster Bass became a cult favorite among indie, punk, and alternative bassists (such as Dee Dee Ramone and Kim Gordon) for its lightweight feel, punchy and treble-forward tone, and simplicity. It features an offset/double-cutaway solid body and a straightforward electronics layout that lets players focus purely on performance.
