Kala Bakithi Kumalo Signature Acoustic-Electric U-BASS®

Bakithi Kumalo has been a proud endorsee of the Kala U-BASS® for over a decade. Longtime collaborator and bassist for Paul Simon, Bakithi’s world-renowned work for 1985’s Graceland in South Africa launched his lifelong career as bassist, studio musician, and composer. As a new milestone, Bakithi and Kala have designed his very own Signature Acoustic-Electric U-BASS® to help share his unique sound and philosophy as a bassist with players of any level. With this Signature U-BASS®, Kala & Bakithi set out to create the perfect U-BASS introduction for new and experienced bass players alike. This fretted bass pairs a Natural Mahogany build with the Kala Round Wound U-BASS® Strings for a clear and confident tone. Personal touches include Bakithi’s signature black pickguard and custom Zulu shield headstock artwork, hand-drawn by Bakithi’s own album cover artist, Gus Liberdade.
