The DB10 is a hybrid blend of an electric bass and a double bass. You will simply love playing with this instrument with its unique sound!
With the DB10, Takamine has created a hybrid bass guitar that combines the advantages of a bass guitar and a double bass. Indeed, this instrument features a classic neck length of 34" but with the radius of a double bass, allowing you to play with a bow. Additionally, you can play this bass in a traditional manner or like a double bass thanks to the spike that you can deploy to ensure stability in a vertical position. This fretless instrument produces a round and full sound with extremely rich harmonics. In the end, everything you would expect from a classic double bass.
Before starting the manufacturing process, the Takamine R&D team analyzes the needs of musicians. The DB10 features a Palathetic pickup created by the Takamine R&D team and recognized as an electro-acoustic model with a natural and precise sound. Equipped with the high-end CT4-DX pickup, this hybrid bass will offer you a very wide sound palette.
