Description

UB Standard LAMINATED Double Bass - Upright Bass hand built by Upton Bass
This auction is for a spot in our production queue! Production times may vary.
We don't stock Upton Basses. Each is built and setup for the musician who orders it. The bass we build for you is YOUR bass, built for YOU in a way precious few things are these days.  It's a process that begins with YOU, not a factory half way around the world.  Whether it is a one of a kind custom or our standard workshop models, it's all built just for you.
The UB Standard LAMINATED Upright Bass represents our entry-level upright bass, carefully conceived with the playability and resonance of all our models.  We believe it is the most musical and finest built hybrid double bass available at this price.
The UB Standard laminate is a roundback contrabass with a laminated top and plywood back and sides.  All of our plywood is made in-house from our own tonewood veneers!  Its design is based on the gamba pattern of the Upton Bohemian Model, influenced by basses such as Juzek.  The UB Standard is hand built in Mystic, Connecticut and features top grade ebony components, top-quality tuning machines, our best quality bridge and more.
This package price includes bridge adjusters and D'Addario strings. Hardware subject to change based on availability.
The end of the fingerboard is straight cut (no solo swoop extension).  The hand applied varnish is a medium dark walnut color.  A bass bag is not included.
The Standard is built on our Bohemian pattern with a string length of 41.5" and a D neck. For sizing variations, please talk to us about building a custom Bohemian Model.
