Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between P-bass and J-bass?

P-bass (Precision) has a thick, punchy tone—great for rock and pop. J-bass (Jazz) has a brighter, more versatile tone—excellent for funk, jazz, and slap. Both are great for beginners; it's about your preferred sound. We'll help you choose during your free lesson!

What's included in the free lesson?

Your rental includes one FREE 30-minute lesson covering proper technique, basic fingerstyle and pick playing, and foundational grooves with a professional bass instructor. You'll be locking in with the rhythm section in no time!

Do you price match bass rental prices?

Yes! If you find a comparable bass rental at a lower price, we'll match it. We want you to get the best value while learning on quality equipment.

Is this bass currently in stock?

We have limited inventory. Contact us to check current availability of P-bass and J-bass models and reserve yours today. We'll respond within 24 hours!
