This is a rare EUB. THe CRT is the “traditional” version of the NS double bass and is set up to satisfy the needs of the experienced upright bassist. The standard 106 cm acoustic upright scale length is preserved to insure that fingering and string tension will be consistent with acoustic instruments. While the neck shape is traditional, the small body allows unrestricted access to the upper register of the instrument . Dot markers provide a subtle but effective intonation reference.
MAPLE BODY AND NECK: The body and neck of the CR-T Series double bass are crafted of solid European hard maple, with a flame maple face. The neck has a traditional upright shape, but with extended access to the upper register of the fingerboard. The solid-body design enhances sustain and clarity, and is resistant to the effects of temperature change and humidity.
FINGERBOARD: The fingerboard is expertly graduated with an asymmetric profile to insure that each note is even and buzz free.
BRIDGE PICKUP: The Polar directional piezo pickup system responds selectively to either vertical vibration (for the sustained plucked sound, or llateral vibration (for dynamic bowing, and a percussive plucked sound). 4 indented rotary knobs for the 18 volt preamp - volume, blend, treble eq, bass eq
