Introducing the MMX Performer double bass
The MMX Performer double bass outfit is the perfect choice for advancing students or young professional players, combining high quality with unrivalled value for money. Every instrument is made in the workshop of Guofang Wang, a highly respected luthier based in Beijing. His team of expert craftsmen carve the panels by hand from carefully selected tonewoods to ensure the best possible tone.
They use solid spruce for the table, maple for the back and sides, and smooth ebony for the fingerboard. The wood is seasoned for strength before being manipulated and finished with an oil-based lacquer which improves resonance and gives it an attractive antique sheen. Each double bass is carefully set up by our in-house team of experts who adjust the soundpost and bridge precisely to each instrument. It is then strung with a set of top quality Dominant strings and further adjustments are made where needed.
The outfit comes supplied with an ultra-light carbon composite bow, padded gig bag, and a block of rosin.
