This is a Gliga (Romania) Genial Ⅰ Violin Shape Flat Back 1/2 size double bass, a prestigious brand. A rare 1/2 size double bass. The 1/2 size makes it easy to handle for smaller players and students, and the built-in pickup makes it ready for live performances and recordings. Despite its reasonable price, it's made using the traditional all-solid wood carving method, and it produces a surprisingly deep bass sound that exceeds expectations for its small body. The upper and lower nuts, fingerboard, and tailpiece are made of ebony, which is another attractive feature. String length: 99cm Total length: 170cm Top plate: 103cm Upper bouts: 48cm Center bouts: 35cm Lower bouts: 62cm - Stable quality from the prestigious Gliga - 1/2 size, easy to handle, perfect for practice - Built-in FISHMAN PU (BP-100 Classic Series Upright Bass Pickup) - Comes with a bow and case, ready to play - The fingerboard was adjusted in a workshop in Tokyo about six months ago, making it very easy to play. - You can use it for live performances and recordings right away. - If needed, I will also include the double bass stand in the photos. I prefer to hand it over in the Kanto area, near Tokyo. I can also deliver it by car. If you are far away, I would appreciate it if you could consult with me. There is some wear and tear from storage, but it is generally in good condition and the playing condition is not a problem. Recommended for first-time double bass players or as a second instrument.
