PARKSONS SPB-140 (3 Tone Sunburst) — Bass guitar
The PARKSONS SPB-140 is a four-string bass inspired by the legendary Precision — the first mass-produced solid-body bass, introduced in 1951. The formula has been proven over decades: one split-coil pickup, volume, tone and nothing extra between the player’s hands and the amp. A 34" (864 mm) scale, 20 frets and a bolt-on maple neck make it a full-size instrument you can confidently bring to your first rehearsal. The model is aimed at beginner bassists on a limited budget. The 3 Tone Sunburst finish is a classic burst: an amber centre darkening to black edges, with the same burst on the back of the body.

The Precision Legacy: The Sound That Holds a Song Together
The Precision became the first mass-produced solid-body bass back in 1951, and its formula still underpins the bass sound in many genres. The SPB-140 keeps its key traits: a solid-wood body, a bolt-on maple neck and a 34" (864 mm) scale. For a beginner, it is a chance to learn from day one on the design used across rock, pop and soul — and later move to any other bass without relearning.
2-BP Split-Coil Pickup
The 2-BP pickup consists of two offset halves, each sensing its own pair of strings. This layout gives a dense, focused sound with clear mids that holds down the low end in a mix with guitars and drums. The controls are minimal — volume and tone, no EQ: your hands, picking position and the tone knob shape the sound.
Hardware and Setup
The EB-6 bridge with four individual saddles lets you set the height of each string, while chrome open-gear tuners are the classic bass choice. A rosewood fingerboard with dot markers, 20 frets and a plastic nut make up a familiar set that even a newcomer will find easy to understand. The truss rod and bridge wrenches in the box help you dial the instrument in to suit you.
