Bass – Big Band Bass Gear  

JamHQ | Table of Contents

Big band bass playing is all about rock-solid time, tonal authority, and seamless support beneath brass, reeds, and rhythm. Whether you’re laying down swinging quarter notes or doubling horn lines, your gear needs to deliver strong fundamentals, a warm voice, and enough projection to cut through large ensemble textures without overpowering. These basses are chosen for classic tone, deep low-end support, and traditional feel.
