No Treble columnist Ryan Madora covered Summer NAMM for us this year, and one of the most striking pictures she took was at the Ella Basses booth.
This week we check out company’s #0015 bass, which centers around a beautiful blend of exotic woods.
The front of the bass is adorned with an interesting selection of cocobolo on its body top and fingerboard. The core of the body is limba, while the neck is a laminate of rock maple and wenge. The theme is continued on the bass’s pickup covers, which are limba and cocobolo.
The #0015’s neck is supported with a two-way adjustable truss rod and carbon fiber reinforcement. The pickups are a pair of Bartolini 5-string classic dual coils matched with a Bartolini two-band preamp. The controls include a volume knob, a blend knob, and a stacked bass/treble knob.
