Stonington Model 5-String Double Bass with Extension

This new Stonington Model is an inspired extra-range build! Strung with a high C on the 5th string, the E extends to the low C, giving a very handy 4-octave range (C to shining C?)

Many have asked about the new Stonington pattern – it’s basically a “true 3/4-size” double bass with violin corners, with pricing and build varieties the same as our Bohemian. The Stonington is a compact sibling of the Brescian, with all the build flexibility of the Bohemian – from fully laminated versions to fully-carved!

Or in this example, a solid-wood flatback fiver that projects and growls everywhere. This double bass will be a remarkable performer under the bow or pizzicato. If the Stonington 3/4 build interests you, give us a call to learn more – +1 (860) 535-9399 – we’ve built a nice selection so far and are taking orders.
