Journey Instruments OB660 - Matte Black

Tailor-made for Traveling Bassists
The Journey Instruments OB660 acoustic-electric bass utilizes a patented removable neck system that's tailor-made for airline carry-on compartments. Another way this bass is the perfect travel companion is its temperature-resistant carbon fiber construction. Yet, even with its diminutive body, the OB660 delivers a punchy, resonant depth with surprising volume and projection. And thanks to a proprietary under-saddle transducer pickup, the Journey Instruments OB660 may also become your go-to performance instrument.











Patented removable neck is designed for travel
The OB660 Overhead Bass from Journey Instruments was built for travel. Thanks to its patented removable neck system, Journey Instruments' Overhead travel bass can be assembled and disassembled in a matter of seconds. It collapses to a size that can be carried-on to most commercial airplanes, and it fits into most overhead bin compartments. The Overhead even comes with a travel backpack that includes a TSA-compliant laptop/tablet fold-out panel that can be scanned by airport security without removing the device.




A travel-sized body with full-sized tone
The OB660 bass exhibits wedge design with a lower shoulder/bout depth that's deep enough to bring out the naturally rich low end of the instrument. It's also this innovative shape that allows such a small instrument to produce such unbelievable volume and projection. This bass's offset soundhole maximizes the resonance of its soundboard, while proprietary bracing ensures a gratifying tone with incredible clarity. A bone nut, compensated bone saddle, and ebony bridge pins complete this guitar's tonal picture.




Ready for the stage
Not only will the Journey Instruments OB660 acoustic-electric bass become your favorite travel companion, but with its onboard under-bridge transducer pickup system, it also makes the perfect performing partner. And it couldn't be easier to use. Simply plug into a DI, amplifier, or preamp of your choice, and you'll be greeted with warm and natural acoustic-electric bass tones every time. Musicians at Sweetwater have traveled across the country with Journey instruments, and they couldn't be more satisfied with their experience.
