With advanced technology, high-quality Aguilar components and a unique headless design, this five-string sets new standards in the bass world. Made in Japan, the Starstream Artist HL5 combines precision, comfort and tonal excellence in a modern instrument.

Innovative headless design for maximum performance

The VOX headless system of the Starstream Artist HL5 is designed to offer maximum tuning stability and ease of use. The newly developed bridge mechanics enable fast and precise tuning with minimal effort. The perfectly balanced VSS frame made of resin and alder wood, in combination with the weighted headjoint, ensures optimum balance and a rich, resonant sound.

The ergonomic neck transition was designed to transfer the string vibrations perfectly to the body. This not only results in an impressive fullness of sound, but also significantly improves the playing feel. The Starstream Artist HL5 thus offers a comfortable and inspiring playing experience that is perfect for all playing styles and techniques.

Powerful and precise sound with Aguilar pickups

The powerful sound of the HL5 is generated by the high-quality Aguilar AG5M pickups and the Aguilar OBP-3 preamplifier. This combination delivers a defined and assertive sound that holds its own in any mix. The active pickups provide clear, powerful lows and brilliant highs, while the OBP-3 preamp provides precise tone control.

With controls for volume, treble, midrange and bass, as well as a preamp bypass switch, the HL5's sound can be customized. This versatility makes the bass ideal for a variety of genres and playing techniques, whether in the studio, on stage or when practicing at home.

Highest quality materials and workmanship

The Vox Starstream Artist HL5 is made in Japan and represents the best in craftsmanship and build quality. The alder body provides a balanced, resonant sound, while the maple neck and rosewood fingerboard offer a comfortable and responsive playing surface. With a scale length of 864 mm (34 inches) and a nut width of 46 mm, the HL5 offers optimum playability and tension for all five strings.

The VOX HL5 bridge with a string spacing of 18 mm was specially developed to ensure precise intonation and excellent tuning stability. Every component of the instrument is designed to provide a flawless playing experience while maintaining the characteristic sound and style.
