Top Notch Construction
Thanks to its semi-hollow, Spruce and Flame Maple design, and the inclusion of a Spruce Centreblock, the Contemporary Violin Bass combines the distinctive look and tone of the original, with the playability of a more modern instrument.
Not only does the inclusion of a centreblock increase the overall natural sustain of this bass, it also helps to eliminate any unwanted feedback when playing at higher volume levels.
Classicly Voiced
Thanks to the inclusion of two Hofner Staple Nickel pickups, this Contemporary Violin Bass accurately recreates the tone of the 500/1 original.
These pickups have been specially-wound to work perfectly with this basses semi-hollow construction, and compliment its natural resonance with a deep and booming modern voice.
