Shop Bass Guitars from Fender, Ibanez, Gibson, and More
Looking for a bass that rumbles, growls, and holds the whole band together? You’re in the right spot. American Musical Supply has a massive lineup of bass guitars for sale, from tried-and-true acoustic and electric 4-strings to extended-range beasts that push into 5- and 6-string territory.

Signs It’s Time to Refresh Your Bass Rig and Gear

Protect Your Bass Guitar with Hard Cases and Gig Bags

At AMS, you’ll find everything from tough hard-shell cases that handle tour life to lightweight gig bags for zipping across town. Protect your instrument, keep it looking sharp, and spend less time trying to convince yourself that all those new blemishes add "character."
Frequently Asked Questions About Bass Guitars
Got questions about finding the right bass guitar? You’re not the only one. Here are some quick answers to help you get started and keep your groove tight.
Are acoustic bass guitars loud enough without an amp?
They’ll project more than an unplugged electric, but usually not enough for a band setting. Most players still plug their acoustic bass guitar into an amp for gigs.
How often should I change bass strings?
If you play a lot, every few months keeps your tone fresh. If you like a darker, more mellow sound, you can stretch it longer.
Do I need an amp to play a bass guitar at home?
Technically no, but without an amp you’ll barely hear the low end. Even a small practice amp will let your bass shine and make your practice sessions feel way more legit.
