  Leading the classic bass guitar to the highest level of Quality and Performance

 

                                                          About the F-Clef Bass

  When we and our team of selected luthiers started working on the project, as bassplayers first of all, our goal was to redefine the concept of "the classic" bass guitar.For years, many J-Basses inspired instruments have been available, but now with the F-Clef Bass, an instrument capable of combining and accurately emulating the best exemplar of the "classic" basses from the 60's and the 70's now coupled in high quality experienced before only on  the finest works of world class luthiery, has finally taken shape!
