Eminence Electric Upright – the portable upright bass. The Eminence is smaller and more compact than a standard-size acoustic upright bass. But: the acoustic body has an arched top and bottom, a bass bar and a soundpost -- the same structural design as a standard-size double bass. That's why the Eminence sounds and plays like a standard-size double bass, and not just like fretless bass guitar. The unamplified sound of the Eminence is great for practising in the hotel room or if you have sensitively neighbours. Played amplified, the Eminence with its acoustic body sounds like a larger acoustic double bass.

Presto strings combine more than seven decades of string making experience with latest production technologies. Presto Nylonwound strings for double bass were designed to combine the unique sound of natural gut strings with the convinient properties of steel rope core strings. They have a dark and mellow, but big tone with a strong sustain. They are of comparable low tension. They are an excellent choice for jazz, rockabilly or bluegrass bass players, searching for this particular “old school” double bass sound.
NEW: Presto Balance Orchestra chromesteel strings for double bass.
