A 5-string acoustic bass that covers more ground than most

This used Michael Kelly Dragonfly 5-String Acoustic Bass suits players who want the wider range of a 5-string, but in an acoustic format that is a bit more distinctive than the usual electric 5-string basses.

The maple body and quilted maple top give it a brighter, more defined response than a warmer, softer-sounding wood combination might, which helps keep the notes from getting too cloudy. The mahogany neck and pau ferro fingerboard keep the feel familiar, while the cutaway is useful if you are moving further up the neck than a lot of acoustic bass players tend to. The Fishman pickup system gives you a more usable amplified option for rehearsals, smaller gigs, or plugging straight in when the acoustic volume on its own is not enough.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this used Dragonfly 5 suits players who want acoustic bass character, 5-string range, and a plugged-in option that makes the instrument easier to use in more situations.
