Product Description
If you’re after a 5-string bass with serious clarity and punch, the Tobias Killer B V delivers the goods. Built using some top-shelf tonewoods, this beauty sports a 34" scale with a rock‑solid 5‑piece neck made from Hard Maple and Purpleheart. Up top, you get a silky-smooth 24‑fret Wenge fingerboard paired with Tobias’ super‑comfortable Asym neck profile, giving you easy playability wherever you roam.
Designed for comfort & perfect balance
The Killer B’s curvy offset body is crafted from Sapele, which is wonderfully resonant and perfectly balanced. Hardware-wise, Tobias don’t mess about either. You get an ultra-modern, high-mass Babicz bridge and Gotoh tuners that keep everything tight, stable and gig‑ready.
Premium electronics for awesome versatility
A pair of Bartolini active humbuckers deliver a huge palette of tones, backed up by a seriously flexible set of onboard controls that let you shape your sound in seconds. Lay down smooth jazz grooves or cut through the mix with authority for rock and funk tunes!
Ready to go, right outta the box
To top it all off, the Killer B V ships with a premium Tobias gig bag. It’s sturdy, stylish and properly protective, so whether you're heading to rehearsal, your local jam night or straight onto the stage, you can sling it over your shoulder and go with confidence.
