When Fender® and Victor Bailey paired up to create his signature 5-string acoustic-electric bass, the man himself graciously spent a great deal of time and effort on the collaboration. The result is a unique instrument: The Victor Bailey signature 5-string bass guitar features a beautifully arched back, figured dao back and sides, a laminated spruce top with a gorgeous dao veneer, an abalone rosette, tortoise-shell binding, a 34"-scale neck modeled on Bailey's signature Fender® Jazz Bass® guitar, satin gold Hipshot® licensed lightweight tuners, Fishman® electronics, and a deluxe gig bag. The Fender® Victor Bailey Signature 5-String is a truly stunning acoustic bass.
Victor Bailey is the first-call session guy, solo artist, consummate sideman, acoustic bassist extraordinaire, and veteran of more than 1,000 recordings by groups and artists including Weather Report, Michael Brecker, LL Cool J, and Mary J. Blige.
