Our amazing team has blended all the most sought after features by a high percentage of bassists into a single instrument.
Indeed it’s a great example of balance, simplicity and functionality; we added a vintage look to our design and allowed total expression of any bass player thanks to our awesome MB Instrument Pre on board.

OUR BASSES ARE UNIQUE PIECES.
