Reverend Dub King Semi-Hollowbody Electric Bass Guitar - Sandstone

Rich, rounded bass tone comes with an easy reach on the Reverend Dub King semi-hollow electric bass guitar. The Dub King's semi-hollow korina body and solid spruce top bring resonant depth to the low end, while its 30" scale makes wider stretches easier to manage. A Split Brick neck pickup provides thick fundamentals, and a Thick Brick bridge pickup adds clarity and attack when a part needs more definition. Meanwhile, the five-piece korina/walnut neck and high-mass bridge complement a design built for comfortable playing and versatile bass tones.

Semi-Hollow Korina Body and Spruce Top Add Depth

The Dub King combines a semi-hollow korina body with a solid spruce top to create a resonant foundation for traditional bass sounds. The construction contributes an airy character to sustained notes while maintaining a focused response. Together, these tonewoods give the Dub King a responsive feel that works particularly well for rounded grooves and expressive playing without limiting the bass to a single style.

Split Brick and Thick Brick Pickups Balance Bass Voices

The Split Brick neck pickup produces deep thump and full fundamentals while helping keep individual notes defined. For additional presence, the Thick Brick bridge pickup adds midrange punch and a more direct attack. Their complementary voicings let players move between warmth and clarity. Whether you're holding down a slow groove or articulating more rhythmic passages, the Dub King offers classic short-scale character with the definition needed for modern arrangements.

Pickup Pan Control Allows Quick Tone Blending

A dedicated pickup pan lets you move smoothly between the two Brick pickups with a single adjustment. Favor the neck for a rounder, deeper sound, shift toward the bridge for more midrange definition, or blend both to balance body and attack. Volume and tone controls provide further flexibility while keeping the passive electronics straightforward. This intuitive layout makes it easy to adjust your sound between songs or recording parts without interrupting the performance.

Short Scale and Five-Piece Neck Encourage Comfortable Playing

The 30" scale places frets closer together than on a standard 34" bass, easing wider stretches and making position changes more manageable. A five-piece korina/walnut neck features a comfortable medium oval profile. The rosewood fingerboard brings classic dark grain to the instrument and combines a 12" radius with 21 frets for familiar playability. A headstock-access dual-action truss rod simplifies routine setup adjustments, helping players maintain a comfortable feel for rehearsals, practice and live sets.

High-Mass Bridge Adds Sustain While Hipshot Tuners Improve Balance

A high-mass bridge supports sustain and helps notes retain definition, with string-through-body and top-load options providing setup flexibility. Hipshot Ultralight tuners reduce headstock weight to improve balance, while the Boneite nut supports tuning stability. A Pure Tone jack provides a secure cable connection during rehearsals and performances. With its resonant semi-hollow body, comfortable short scale and versatile Brick pickups, the Reverend Dub King delivers deep character with the clarity and control to support a wide range of grooves.
