Denne fantastiske bass-serien er et resultat av det flotte samarbeidet mellom Richard Bona og Marco De Virgiliis.
De aksepterer ikke kompromisser!
Richard er en av de mest verdsatte og respekterte musikerne over hele verden og helt siden starten av dette prosjektet, sa han at han aldri ville ha satt navnet sitt (og fingrene også) på et instrument som ikke leverer den høyeste kvalitetsstandarden.
Marco og teamet hans brukte all sin erfaring til å lage et instrument som tilfredsstiller de høyeste produksjons standardene og all deres kunnskap, for å tilby et så flott instrument til en svært konkurransedyktig pris.

Controls are VOLUME/VOLUME/TONE (with an active/passive switch on Tone) letting an incredible pickups blending capability compared to a regular Blend control and with active BASS/MID/TREBLE… so you’re not gonna have resounding bass or blowing treble. The frequency values have been chosen to offer a wide range of tones that you can use on any setting. The TONE control (working also in the passive mode) has been defined by Richard as the “G Point” because of its accurate efficacy letting to move from smooth and warm tones to bright and hi-fi ones, everything in a one of a kind “sensual” way.
