Maruszczyk Frog model (5 string, headless). It is an original design and in this case it comes with a bolt on so you get great clarity as well as excellent sustain

We ordered it with a two Delano Xtender 5 HE/S pickups. There are two Single-Series-Parallel switch so you get a ton of great sounds. Also the new Maruszczyk Toneformer 3 band preamp allows you to fine tune the sound. There's a 3 way midrange switch for you to choose the frequency that works best for you.

Of course the headless design means that traveling with this bass is really easy and it is also incredibly comfortable and easy to play. Also the tuning is far more stable than on headed basses so that's an added advantage.

The quilted ash top adds a nice touch, making this a really attractive bass. 

The low B is a clear example of how they should always be: plenty of volume and definition.

To sum up, a great looking, playing and sounding bass that is also extremely versatile

Maruszczyk is one of the brands that we've been exclusive dealers for in Spain for a longer time. We've always loved these instruments and it is great to see that they do not just sit on their laurels but keep improving and growing. Every year we get a lot of new Maruszczyk basses and it is great to see that the quality and number of options just keep improving but the price tag remains incredibly affordable.

 Adrian Maruszczyk is a professional bassplayer and a true visionary when it comes to bass designing. The headquarters of his brand are in Aldenhoven, Germany. Maruszczyk's moto is "From Player to Player" and it basically means that they are bassplayers who really understand what bassplayers need and can react to those needs really fast. Just check Public Peace's Youtube channel and you'll find Adrian himself doing most of the demos of his basses. We love this personal approach.

 The basses are built in a small factory in Poland and Adrian Maruszczyk is really on top of the whole production system. For him it is simple: "if my name is on the bass, it has to be good".

 Right now these instruments are already considered as some of the best European made basses.

What other brands call "Custom Shop", "Custom Built", "Masterbuilt", etc., means just standard at Maruszczyk basses. This means you won't be charged extra money just because a paticular component of piece of wood is a bit different. You just pay what you get for, We love this honest attitude. Also each bass is made to order, meaning they are actually all Custom Shop Basses. No standard series here or runds of dozens of similar instruments. In short: these are Custom Shop basses at Standard series pricing.
