\n<\/em>Wood carving<\/strong> is a special art & in this unique instrument is the main element. The “teacher” gave us a hand in the inner designs and we cut the big parts to create this impressive body made of solid red mahogany<\/a>, <\/strong>that we called\u00a0Sculpture bass<\/strong>!<\/h4>\n

The specificity of the draft body, “forced” us to build from scratch a completely original handmade\u00a0bridge, made of pure brass, fully adjustable with brass saddles. The neck\u00a0is also constructed from solid mahogany with double action rod and a fingerboard made from wenge<\/a><\/strong>, a wood that we fanatically worship! The inlay marks –double twirls<\/strong>– cut with a laser and is also completely prototypes, made from scratch by Stamatis\u00a0hands. Continuing diversification, \u00a0we did the headstock inverted, with tuning machimes by\u00a0<\/strong>Gotoh<\/a><\/strong>, Res-O-lite, made of aircraft aluminum alloy, just\u00a064 grams!<\/h4>\n

In electronics we choose the minimal way. A Seymour Dunkan Basslines<\/strong> <\/a>passive with direct connection to the output and that’s all! We have choosen La Bella<\/a> <\/strong>strings, the Slappers and we made the right choice!<\/h4>\n

Playing with this unique instrument, is easy, soft and produces rich sound -because of mahogany and its plan- even if you use it acoustic! With the power of Basslines easily covers wide range of styles and the feeling is special, unique!<\/p>\n
