Pasadena STB 150 BK — Affordable Super Precision Bass With Classic P-Bass Tone

The Pasadena STB 150 BK brings the Precision Bass spirit into a price range that welcomes first-time buyers. Built in the Super Precision style, this 4-string bass pairs a bolt-on maple neck with a lightweight basswood body finished in gloss black. Passive noiseless split single-coil pickups create the deep, focused low end and clear midrange bite that define the P-Bass sound.

What Stands Out in the Entry-Level P-Bass Segment

Several features set the STB 150 BK apart from typical budget instruments. Thanks to the noiseless split single-coil configuration, players enjoy a hum-free signal that remains clean through high-gain settings and recording. Precise neck relief adjustments are possible with the Dual Action truss rod, so the instrument is ready for low action, slap, or heavy fingerstyle. Chrome hardware and a 3-Ply White/Black/White pickguard complete its classic look.

Body Construction — Lightweight Basswood With Bolt-On Stability

Basswood's low density makes the instrument comfortable to hold, with balanced mids and smooth highs. The bolt-on neck design adds brightness and attack, while a gloss polyurethane finish protects the wood and gives the black color a professional sheen.

• Body Material: Basswood — lightweight tonewood with balanced midrange
• Bright attack and easy maintenance are possible due to the bolt-on neck construction.
• Finish: Gloss — durable polyurethane coating in black
• Pickguard: 3-Ply White/Black/White — classic P-Bass visual signature

Neck and Fretboard — Maple Neck With Indian Rosewood

The maple neck resists bowing under string tension, and the Indian rosewood fretboard provides warmth to the attack with a smooth touch. The 864 mm scale length ensures standard P-Bass string tension, ideal for both fingerstyle and pick use. Twenty frets mean full upper-register access for melodic passages.

• Neck Material: Maple — stable, bright response with proven durability
• Fretboard Material: Indian Rosewood — warm attack and smooth playing surface
• Scale Length: 864 mm — standard Precision Bass measurement
• Frets: 20 — full upper-register access
• Truss Rod: Dual Action — adjustable in both directions

Electronics and Hardware — Passive P-Bass Pickups With Simple Controls

Electronics follow the original P-Bass philosophy: passive pickups and minimal controls, letting playing style shape the sound. Two Single Coil Precision Bass pickups cover the bridge and middle positions with independent volume controls, and a master tone knob adjusts treble. Die Cast tuners and a 4-Saddle Standard bridge help keep tuning accurate and reliable.

• Pickup Configuration: SS (2x Single Coil Precision Bass) — classic P-Bass layout
• Enjoy a transparent signal path and never worry about batteries, thanks to passive electronics.
• Controls: 2x Volume, 1x Tone — independent pickup blending with master tone
• Tuners: Die Cast — precise tuning stability
• Bridge: 4-Saddle Standard — individual string intonation adjustment

Who Is the Pasadena STB 150 BK Designed For?

This model is ideal for beginners wanting authentic P-Bass feel without flagship prices, as well as intermediate players who need a dependable backup.

Rock, punk, blues, country, and worship groups all benefit from the signature P-Bass growl.
