“Johannes Gustav Ruchti” Line of Fine String Instruments 
 

Size: 3/4

  String length: 41 1/2"  
 


I am very pleased to announce the introduction of a new line of quality basses!

I am importing fine handmade instruments from a small European workshop. These instruments are not mass-produced and have a very limited production. The craftsmanship is consistently high, producing professional quality basses at a very affordable price. These basses are 3/4 sized instruments with a 41 1/2” string length and feature sloping shoulders that allow you easy access to the middle and upper registers.

These instruments have a wonderfully quick response, are even in all registers and possess a full, warm tone; excellent for jazz, solo or orchestral work. The tops are even grained quarter-sawn spruce; the neck, and ribs and back are flamed, quarter-sawn maple and the fingerboards are quality ebony. The instruments are tastefully varnished, allowing them the appearance of a quality, older instrument.

Each bass comes with a Mooradian Standard gig bag.

This bass has been sold.
