Allparts AP-0621-023 Bass Guitar Thumbrest — Black Plastic
The Allparts AP-0621-023 is a black plastic thumbrest for electric bass guitar — a small bracket mounted to the bass body that provides a resting point for the thumb when playing fingerstyle, improving right-hand anchoring, consistency, and comfort during extended playing sessions. Includes mounting screws. Made in the USA.
What a Thumbrest Does
A thumbrest (also called a tug bar) gives fingerstyle bass players a fixed anchor point for the thumb — allowing the plucking fingers to work from a stable, consistent position rather than floating or resting on the pickup covers. This improves right-hand technique consistency, reduces fatigue during long playing sessions, and gives players more control over tone and dynamics by anchoring the hand at a fixed distance from the strings. Thumbrests were a standard fitting on vintage Fender Precision and Jazz Basses, and remain a popular addition for players who prefer a fixed anchor point over floating thumb technique.
Black Plastic — Classic Vintage Look
The black plastic finish replicates the original thumbrest material used on vintage Fender basses — a clean, unobtrusive look that suits most bass finishes and hardware colours. The plastic construction keeps weight minimal. For a gold metal thumbrest, see the AP-0621-002.
