AZOLA BASSES Handcrafted in California, USA: AZOLA EuroCoustic BABY BASS
Azola EuroCoustic Baby Bass
AZOLA EuroCoustic BABY BASS
June 2010 Azola is not accepting any new orders. ****************************************
The EuroCoustic series has been discontinued indefinitely due to the US dollar's weakness, and also the rise in oil prices - consequently transportation costs.
Please consider the new US-made 2005 Acoustic Series hollow-bodies as an alternative.
***************************************
Steve Azola has developed another inspired interpretation of the classic Azola Baby Bass. The harmonious lines and pleasing proportions of the familiar Baby Bass shape and size make it attractive, practical and portable. The EuroCoustic Baby benefits sonically from the traditional upright bass construction techniques employed in its creation. The result is truly authentic acoustic sound character. We have entrusted the building of these basses to a group of skilled European craftsmen steeped in a long history of making violin-family instruments. Strict design and quality guidance ensures careful workmanship executed to Azola's high standards. And each instrument is thoroughly inspected and completely set-up by Steve Azola in California prior to shipping to its new home.
