Jazz Bass Upright Acoustic Monster by Christopher! The SOUND JUMPS out of this Flat Back Tyrolean style bass making it a FABULOUS Acoustic Gig Bass.
It has a penetrating bass sound that is quite impressive, and a warmth that is very satisfactory. Big sounding when bowed too, wonderful bass and bargain priced for an all solid carved quality bass.


Nice custom setup/new bass adjustments in our shop with adjustable bridge included in this low low price. NO ONE ELSE that I know of is offering custom setups on these basses before shipping to you! Price includes great setups including dressing the fingerboard for smooth playing action.
Really low jazz action takes $165 more work on the fingerboard as I REALLY work it over for a LOW jazz action when desired.
I can dial in a 3 to 4 mm height for the G and D strings and not much higher on the A and E!
I get RAVE reviews on this low jazz action as it is EXTREMELY low and fast easy playing without buzzing and rattling.
Tell me just how low you want it and I'll work it down to that height.
5 to 6 mm at the G string leaves enough height to dig in harder but still low enough along the fingerboard for a low fast playing bass.
