Steinberger - Spirit XT-2 Standard Bass Hot Rod Red + Gig Bag

The Steinberger Spirit XT-2 Standard Bass in Hot Rod Red is a compact 4-string electric bass ideal for musicians on the go, known as "The Ultimate Travel Bass".

It features a lightweight, headless design and technical innovations from Steinberger, including the patented DoubleBall bridge and the 40:1 Direct-Pull adjustment system. This model, from Steinberger's Spirit Collection, is designed to deliver precise intonation and balanced sound at all positions on the neck.

The bass features a basswood body with a solid three-piece maple neck for excellent resonance and durability. The '60s SlimTaper "D" profile and engineered hardwood fingerboard with a 14-inch radius and 24 jumbo frets provide comfortable playability for both beginners and more experienced players.

At just 38.5 inches long, this bass is compact enough to fit in airplane overhead bins, while remaining temperature stable thanks to its headless design.

The XT-2 features Steinberger HB-1 humbucking pickups at the bridge and HB-2 at the neck, delivering a wide range of tones. Controls include volume knobs for each pickup and a master tone control, allowing for fine-tuning of the sound.

The steel DoubleBall bridge and Direct-Pull tuning system provide excellent tuning stability and long sustain, with easy string changes thanks to the Single Ball String Adapter, allowing for any set of strings.

Complete with a deluxe gig bag, the Steinberger Spirit XT-2 is backed by a limited lifetime warranty under the Gibson family of instruments. A perfect choice for bassists looking for a compact, modern bass with a robust and innovative construction, ideal for travel, stage or studio.
