Redefining Short-Scale Bass Playability, Tone, and Value
The HILS America HNB3 4-string short-scale bass encompasses innovation, tone, and ergonomics. Its headless construction combines premium tonewoods like mahogany and a 5-piece maple/walnut neck. The single humbucker and shorter 30” scale length enhance your tone’s fundamental and punch while also offering comfortable access for those wider stretches. Whether recording, performing, or just starting your bass journey, the HNB3 will stand out in your bass collection.
