Frequently Asked Questions
The altered body shape subtly shifts the resonance, often resulting in a slightly warmer, more focused tone with a touch more 'growl' than a traditional bass.
Thomastik Belcanto strings are the factory setup, but of course, you can use any strings you prefer – the fingerboard is well-suited to a variety of string types.
Given the premium construction and price point, this bass is ideal for advanced students, professionals, or serious hobbyists seeking a refined instrument.
