Steinberger XTSTD4BK1 SpiritXT-2 Standard Outfit Travel Electric 4 String Bass Guitar™ - Black

Measuring only 38.5" in length and weighing just 7.5 lbs, its ergonomic construction allows it to fit easily into overhead airline compartments—making it one of the most portable professional basses ever made. Thanks to its headless construction and maple neck, the XT-2 is far less sensitive to temperature changes, ensuring durability and consistent performance in any environment. The neck features a 1960’s style SlimTaper-D profile, 24 medium jumbo frets, a 34" scale length, and a 14" radius, making it comfortable and fast to play. A folding leg rest is compactly integrated into the lower bout of the body for added playing comfort when seated. With its legendary design and unmatched portability, the Steinberger XT-2 Standard is the bass that redefines convenience without compromising tone or performance.

Patented DoubleBall™ Bass Bridge

Steinberger basses, like their legendary guitars, are celebrated for their exceptional tone and flawless intonation across the entire neck. The Steinberger XT-2 is designed without a headstock, featuring a Zero Nut Fret that measures 1.50" wide at the nut and expands to 2.156" at the 12th fret, with a 0.70" string spacing at the bridge for comfortable playability. At the heart of its design is the Patented DoubleBall™ Bass Bridge with steel saddles and the innovative 40:1 Ratio Direct-Pull tuning system. Together, they provide unmatched tuning stability, sustain, and accuracy. With the headless design, the XT-2 also offers superior balance compared to traditional electric basses, making it more comfortable during long sessions. Fine-tuning is performed easily at the bridge, while string changes are fast and efficient. The XT-2 comes factory-equipped with Steinberger DoubleBall™ strings (45, 65, 85, 105), and with the included Single Ball String Adapter, you can also use virtually any standard bass strings of your choice. With its patented innovations and practical design, the Steinberger XT-2 delivers the perfect combination of precision, stability, and convenience for today’s bassist.
