Contrabass Cremona No. 80 Black Strings

This is a Cremona No. 80 (plywood model).
I am selling it due to space constraints.

■ About the instrument
Since it's plywood, it won't produce a deafening sound, but it resonates with a balanced tone from low to high notes, with a natural and unpretentious sound.
The string height is just right, making it easy to play.

It comes with slightly unusual black strings, which look cool.
I think it would be suitable for installing a pickup and using it for pizzicato.

If you plan to play with a bow, you might want to change the strings.

■ Size
・ Domestic 4/4

■ Disclaimer
・ There is a hole on the side of the fingerboard that the previous owner made for pickup installation, but it does not affect playability.
・ The endpin socket is slightly tilted, so if you plan to extend the pin significantly, it would be best to have it adjusted at a workshop.
・ There is a small chip on the lower part of the top plate.
・ There is a repair mark on the right side.
・ There are scratches on the neck, but they do not affect playability.
・ Fret lines that the previous owner added are faintly visible on the fingerboard.
