MTD Kingston Z6 6-String Electric Bass Guitar - Tobacco Sunburst

The MTD Kingston Z6 6-string electric bass guitar gives extended-range players the freedom to explore new sonic landscapes without limitations. Designed with ergonomic insights borrowed from MTD’s USA-built instruments, it delivers confident reach across the full range—whether you’re supplying foundational low end or stepping into chordal and melodic play. An asymmetrical maple neck provides the extra stability and support demanded from a six-string setup, while the compound-radius maple fingerboard keeps your technique relaxed and precise. The solid mahogany body is topped with striking figured maple burl for an ideal blend of resonant warmth and articulate bite. Powering this tonal foundation are active split-coil pickups that capture every detail from deep fundamentals to upper-register chords. Add in the Buzz Feiten Tuning System for rock-solid intonation, and the Z6 stands ready for everything from modern gospel to adventurous fusion and progressive arrangements.

Mahogany Body With Maple Burl Top for Warmth and Definition

Six-string instruments demand clarity, and the Kingston Z6 answers with a smart tonewood recipe. The mahogany body yields a deep, smooth low end—rich enough to support dense ensembles—while the figured maple burl top adds articulation to upper registers where chords and solos live. The sculpted design hugs the player naturally during long rehearsals and marathon studio sessions, and multiple finish options—from Natural Gloss to Satin Amber—highlight the bass’s boutique-inspired style.

Asymmetrical Maple Neck for Extended-Range Comfort

MTD’s signature asymmetrical neck profile gives your fretting hand exactly what it needs where it needs it—more support under the lower strings, a sleeker carve under the higher strings. Carbon-fiber reinforcement maintains ideal stiffness under high-tension tunings, while the compound 10"–14" radius maple fingerboard feels fast, accurate and fatigue-free across all 24 frets. Whether you’re tapping, sliding or comping full chords up high, the Z6 stays smooth and stable.

Active Split-Coils With 3-Band EQ for Detailed, Dynamic Tone

The MTD split-coil pickups maintain low-end power while revealing the nuance required for advanced techniques. An active three-band EQ—with carefully voiced boost and cut ranges—makes it easy to tailor your sound to any style or stage. A pickup blend control transitions between tight, centered punch and a broader, more spacious character, giving you tonal range that adapts as quickly as you do.

Pro Hardware for Stage-Level Reliability

From tuning stability to faster string changes, every detail supports serious performance. Hipshot Ultralite tuners keep balance perfectly in check—no neck dive, even on a six-string—while the top-loading Quick Release bridge means you can swap strings in seconds. Smoked chrome hardware ties it all together with a clean, modern aesthetic that complements the Z6’s premium feel.
