Our approach to bass building is very simple:

For us it is a science, meaning high precision,

hi-tech components. Also it´s fine artisan

work, meaning special attention to every

detail, and finally it is an Art.

We are specialists in all types of bass

guitars, from standard four string to ten

string monstrosities, including double

necks, passive or active electronics,

and infinite varieties of woods and

finishes.

You set your own limits!
