Elfin
My most popular shape - the Elfin is a slightly-downsized take on the popular "Singlecut" style, originally pioneered by Fodera Guitars and Kenneth Lawrence.
This compact-bodied shape is shortened, for full access to all 24 frets. The shape 'hugs' the player and nestles into a very comfortable playing position, standing or seated.
The extended upper bout supports the neck heel further than a usual double-cutaway body, allowing more contact between body and neck, and making the neck more rigid by shortening the unsupported section.
A more rigid neck translates into a faster, more responsive attack, longer sustain, and deeper bass.
The size also makes this model well-suited for heavier, denser body woods such as Hard Ash, heavier Walnut, and even Maple, allowing the player access to the tones of those woods without the excessive weight.
Available in 4, 5, and 6 strings.
Elfin 4-string, Red-on-Black
This stunning Elfin 4-string features an ash body with a unique and striking finish - black stain with red highlighted grain lines.
From a distance, it looks like classic, classy black...but up close, the grain lines have a bold and assertive look that perfectly complement the wide-ranging punch of the ash/maple/wenge/ebony wood combination.
A thinner body and heavy 3-D contouring allow the use of dense Northern Ash, without excessive weight.
Wired passively with Aguilar DCB pickups, this bass has enough 'cut' and presence to find its way through any mix and sound system.
