Supplied in its Gator case

Electric bass entirely hand-carved at the De Leeuw atelier in Pont-Sainte-Maxence, by Quentin De Leeuw, Maître Artisan d'Art, and the artisans he has trained. No CNC. French walnut and maple, worked from the log. Origine France Garantie certified.

Each stage of the making is carried out by hand, with patience and precision. From the selection and drying of the wood through to the finishing, several months of work are required.

1 week — instrument available.

3 to 7 weeks — instrument being finished, with its final shade not yet applied.

4 months — for a semi-custom instrument: selecting the wood for your top, defining the pickup configuration suited to your playing, choosing your finish.

6 months — for a custom instrument: selecting all the woods of your guitar, defining your pickup configuration, settling the details and the complete finish of the instrument.

You may then choose to have your instrument delivered to your home, or to collect it from our Paris showroom.

THE CONTOUR

Its curves are carved by hand, until the instrument balances. Solid walnut body, neck-through construction: the sustain runs from end to end, in a bass of around 4.2 kg.

PICKUPS & ELECTRONICS

Two hand-made, hand-wound humbuckers. Each splits to a single coil: the SC moves from a full, modern voice to the grain of a single.

An Aguilar OBP-3 preamp: three-band EQ, with two selectable midrange frequencies. A warmth and low-mid density that hold their place in a mix. A push/pull pot bypasses it, and the bass returns to passive.

Miraval Studios chose this model for their reopening.

THE NECK HEEL

The sculpted heel of our neck-through builds gives full access to the upper frets and a rare playing comfort. It is one of the signatures of Quentin De Leeuw, Maître Artisan d'Art (master craftsman of the French métiers d'art).
