Unique Features

The features that define a high-end musical instrument are often features you do not see or notice immediately, either from a distance or when you have the instrument in your hands. Consequently, a perfect sound, immaculate finish and a tight-fitting neck pocket alone are not enough to put an instrument in this category. The process our woods go through to make sure they do not move, twist or warp over time, the ergonomic and lightweight designs that help you avoid injuries, and the fretwork that makes our necks feel smooth and fast are just a few examples of what sets our instruments apart from the mainstream.

Combining quality construction, ergonomics and aesthetics into the perfect-sounding bass is the true art of bass design.
