For mellow jazz or tough rock bass lines, our bass guitar selection is packed with variety and quality. Shop here at Peterborough music for a collection of great brands such as ESP Ltd, Fender, Ibanez and Rickenbacker.

ESP Ltd has been a respected brand in the field of rock and metal, bringing its signature hard edged sound to a legion of bands. Bassists like Slayer's Tom Araya have used these hard edged bass guitars, confident that they can bring the right punch needed to knock their fans off their feet.

Over the last 35 years or more, ESP bass guitars have continued the tradition of being hard working instruments. Carrying the torch, musicians such as Henkka T Blacksmith of Children of Bodom use the ESP Ltd's bass guitars for their sound and build. Metal bands know these bass guitars can survive the rigours of extensive touring.

With a design that's truly timeless, Hofner's violin bass guitar is something legendary. With a shape that's known all over the world, these bass guitars are instantly recognisable. With famous musicians such as Sir Paul McCartney playing a Hofner bass guitar, it's no surprise that we know them so well.

While maintaining the rich, full tone for basslines that require subtlety and nuance, Hofner semi acoustic basses deliver this in spades. They're also able to handle a life on the stage perfectly, making sure that your performance is never let down. Enjoy the richness, tones and added sustain, thanks to the fitting of the center block for all contemporary Hofner semi-acoustic instruments.
