EMINENCE

EMINENCE® ELECT R IC UPR IGHT BA SS"e Eminence bass has an arched top and bottom, a bass bar and a sound-post - the same structural design as a standard-size double bass. "e un-ampli!ed sound of the Eminence is great for practising in the hotel room or if you have sensitive neighbors. Played ampli!ed, the Eminence with its acoustic body sounds like a larger acoustic double bass. "e string length of 105 cm / 41-1/4“ and a standard-size neck deliver a familiar playing feel and an easy transition from standard-size double bass to portable upright bass.

"e Eminence bass is also available with a removable neck option (Emi-nence RN models). It just takes a few minutes to assemble or disassemble the Eminence RN. A steel dovetail joint guarantees a resistant and durable !t. An additional sturdy +ight case with wheels is also available.

Models:

E-DB – Eminence Standard mode)

E-DB-RN – Eminence removable neck model

E-DB5 – Eminence Standard model 5 strings

E-DB-RN5 – Eminence removable neck model 5 strings

Options:

Flight Case - For removable neck model

ST302T-Emi – Metal display stand, particular designed to !t the horizontal endpin

CHR I STOPHER® R EMOVABLE NECK MODELTraveling with the bass is always a challenge. It is getting more restricted and expensive especially traveling by air. To make traveling with the bass easier, Concord has developed a double bass with a removable neck. As the maker of the Eminence bass, Concord is very experienced in making por-table basses. Because of the steel dovetail joint, the neck can be removed and assembled within just a few minutes.

Available as gamba or violin model, 3/4 size

Laminated spruce top, laminated +amed maple back and sides

"e softcase for the Christopher RN can be used for both the as-sembled and disassmbled bass. "e overall dimension of this pack-age isn’t much more than the dimension of the bass’ body (70 cm x 130 cm), small enough to !t in a car trunk, train compartment, or even a bike trailer easily. An optional +ight hard case is also avail-able for the Christopher® RN. "e dimensions of the +ight hard case are L 55‘‘ x W 32‘‘ x H 22‘‘; the total weight, including instru-ment, is 60.5 lbs.
