At the heart of this double bass is a carved solid spruce top, paired with laminated basswood back and sides. The solid spruce top produces a warm, resonant sound, supported by laminated basswood back and sides that help it project clearly. Its body is hand-finished and features inlaid purfling, with a natural finish that keeps the appearance traditional and straightforward. A fitted maple bridge completes a construction designed to give you a clear double bass sound.
Getting your double bass in tune is made easy with geared brass tuning machines, giving you quick control when making adjustments. Steel-core strings also come fitted as part of the package, while the ebonised maple fingerboard and maple neck provide a practical playing surface and complete the bass's traditional acoustic construction.
The 3/4 size gives you a practical double bass format, with the familiar construction and features you need for playing and practice. A maple neck is paired with an ebonised maple fingerboard, while the fitted maple bridge supports the strings. Inlaid purfling and a natural finish complete the traditional look. Together with the solid spruce top and laminated basswood body, these features give you a straightforward setup that’s ready for regular playing.
Alongside the double bass, you receive a hardwood bow, rosin, and a protective case. The bow features a round stick, ebony adjuster with two nickel bands, and nickel-silver lapping with a leather thumbpiece. For transport and storage, the included case uses a hard foam shell with a canvas cover. You can carry it using the side handle or shoulder straps, while a zip fastening keeps access simple. There’s also a dedicated sheet music pocket, giving you a handy place to keep your music alongside the instrument.
If you’re buying a first double bass, setup can feel daunting at first. Don’t worry, this double bass outfit arrives partially assembled for quick setup at home. Simply position the bridge, tune the strings to E-A-D-G using the four tuning machines and you're ready to go.
