NS Design - WAV Contrebasse Électrique 5 cordes Translucent Black

The NS Design WAV 5-string electric double bass features a Translucent Black color that stands out on stage. This sophisticated color enhances the value and natural beauty of this instrument.

For those looking for aesthetics and performance, this is a high-performance model made of solid straight-grain maple for the neck and body. Its flamed maple face is sure to appeal to the stylish. Its design is not only aesthetic, but also contributes to a warm tone.

With a scale length of 1060 mm and a 5-string configuration, this instrument easily adapts to most standard ¾-size double bass strings. This compatibility provides players with valuable multifunctionality to explore multiple playing techniques.

The rosewood fingerboard, with an asymmetrical relief, facilitates playability. It allows for smooth transitions between positions. The waterfall markers ensure accurate intonation. The bi-directional truss rod allows for optimal adjustment of the neck curvature. This meets the specific needs of each player.

Topping the list of features of this double bass is its Polar directional piezo sensor system. It is designed to detect vertical and lateral vibrations of the strings. This advanced technology allows for precise audio reproduction. You can switch from a sustained plucked sound that is similar to that of an electric bass guitar, to a percussive plucked tone or a dynamic bow.

For ease of use, the passive electronics with its high-impedance output do not require batteries. The volume and tone controls, accompanied by a switch to select between Arco and Pizzicato modes, allow for real-time tonal customization.

This model also includes a deluxe gig bag, tripod stand, charger, owner's manual and tool kit.
