Dallas Tuxedo Bass: Historic Bass Guitar!

Posted on: 4th December 2017

This Was One of the First Electric Basses Produced in the UK!

This Dallas Tuxedo Bass dates from about 1959/60 and was built in the UK by Dallas Arbiter.

This makes it one of the UK’s first “mass produced” electric bass guitar!

Not only that, but this model was also a first instrument for bass guitar legends like Mo Foster and Bill Wyman (who converted his to “fretless”) and they both still own their Tuxedos.
