This is the Elwood L (Lightweight) model in a very unusual arrangement: medium scale 5 string.

While most 5 string basses are 34" or even 35" scale, this one is just 32" so it feels and plays just amazing. The good news is that the low notes are full (actually fuller than in some 34" 5 string basses) while the treble range sounds smooth. We love it.

We chose two Bassculture pickups with quilted maple covers in Humbucker-Single arrangement that just match the beautiful top and headstock. They sound great and look terrific. Electronics are Delano and you get Passive mode with Passive Tone as well as Active mode with 3 band EQ. I that were not enough, there's a 3 way switch for Single-Series-Parallel operation from the humbucker pickup

with two Delano SCB Humbukers and Delano Sonar preamp. Really great sound and playability. Excellent low B too. Gorgeous flamed maple top and ebony fingerboard complete this cool bass.

Playing this bass is a rewarding experience. Just over 3.5kg, 5 string and med scale. We just love the concept.

Maruszczyk Elwood L5a Med Scale Trans Red

What's really interesting about Maruszczyk basses is that you get a bass with an excellent value for money (nobody is offering this quality for this price, honest) and you can also decide the specs of your personal bass, just like any other Custom Shop bass but with a really short build up time of just 8 weeks and an amazingly low price tag. There's no upcharge for the custom process (the final price of course depends on the specs themselves), and this also sets Maruszczyk basses apart from the rest.

The ordering method is simple and fast (again different to almost any other Custom Shop process): contact us and let us guide you through the different models, options and specs. We'll get back to you in 1-2 days with a price quote including shipping. Once we get your deposit (30%) we'll start the process and you will get your custom bass in 8-9 weeks.

We always have a number of excellent Maruszczyk basses in stock at all times at the shop for immediate shipping so if you don't want (or cannot) wait, just choose one of these and you'll get it in the next day or days (depending on where you are based). Our selection of in stock Maruszczyk basses is based on the most popular models with the specs we think are better suited for each one of these models.
