The Ashdown Roasted Capri Shortscale Onyx Green Metallic electric bass is a bit like a Ford Capri: elegant, responsive and ready to roar.

Its brilliant green colour is a real eye-catcher. A colour that doesn't go unnoticed. As soon as you pick it up, you can feel the beast ready to rip. This isn't a bass that hides in the shadows, it demands the spotlight.

With its short 762 mm tuning fork, every fingering becomes a bolt of lightning. Less distance, more responsiveness. You can string runs together effortlessly, and everything flows more smoothly. Less struggle, more groove!

The roasted maple neck? A rock. Stable and precise, it never deviates. The sound? Always clean, always there, whatever the style. It holds, it resists, even when you press hard.

The Alnico humbucker is a real beast. It spits out warm, almost intimate audio. It packs an unstoppable punch. It's like a roaring engine revving to life.

The lightweight poplar allows you to play without sacrificing comfort. Whether you're standing up or sitting down, this bass makes you forget all about it. You play, you move, it follows without flinching.

45-100 strings? Perfect for an incisive groove. You can string together melodic lines and rhythms with ease. You want responsiveness? You've got it. It's a bass that never lets you rest.
