    My ubass had the misi preamp and it failed. My wife just got me the GT micro bass and I love it . the intonation is better than the ubass. I still love my ubass its one of the first ones made in Calif. It is getting fixed.

    Kays are the best for bluegrass and folk I think I have a 1942 Kay. but another bass that is good is Englehardt they are not as pricey as the vintage Kays and sound good. And play easy.

    Kala Ubass Megathread, Part 1

    I had the same problem with my ubass. I noticed that the bridge wasn't sitting tight on the post and was leaning forward . Causing the intonation to be off . I fixed it by putting wood shims under the front of the bridge. That seemed to help .
