We think that you'll fall in love with this Briggs
copy instrument because it really is a great model to play. The
flat back with upper angle break, the nicely raked upper shoulders
and the string length of 104.7cm mean that it is a very, very easy
instrument to get around. In terms of the sound department – thanks
to the generously proportioned lower bouts and rib-depth - both
volume of sound and tonal quality are mighty impressive.
Yes we've meticulously set the instrument up with
top quality fittings so it looks and feels just right. You'll just fall in love
with the hand made Baker copy machine heads that are simply the
best in both looks and smoothness of operation. You'll just
fall in love with the Aluminium adjusters that have been fitted
into the top quality Chevalets Despiau bridge for these – in
an instant - will enable you to vary the height of your strings
to suit your various playing styles or demands. You'll just
fall in love with the hand made brass endpin unit which is both
smooth and silent in operation and which provides you with 100%
peace of mind.
On both price and performance these beautifully
presented hand-made "Workshop" instruments
are now widely recognised as being a market-leading product. They
are absolutely ideal for a wide variety of players from good orchestral
students and jazzers to dedicated amateurs and pros requiring a
second or touring instrument.
Looks like an old bass, feels like an old bass,
and sounds like an old bass - and all for a price that is much,
much less than the cost of a new instrument from a modern maker.
You definitely must come and try out this bass.
We're quite sure that you'll be much more than impressed.
