Introducing the NEW 5/8 bass!
Not too big. Not too small.
⭐️Designed specifically for players who need something in between.
Offering easier reach, improved playability, and a full, balanced sound. With wider bouts for a richer tone and a bent-back design for easier upper register access.
Built through real conversations with players and teachers.
Because the right fit changes everything.

It was a blast showcasing our NEW 5/8 Bass pattern. We had the honor of working with Dr.Kate Jones and Andy Moritz to help develop this new pattern to make this bass accessible to today’s bassist! Couldn’t have done it without your support and help!!🎶🎵
🎻 A closer look at the details that matter.Our Eastman representative explains why string length is scaled consistently from 3/4 to 5/8 double basses.

What a honor to be visiting the offices of @eastmanstrings in the Netherlands. I have been part of the family since some years by now and playing their Albert Nebel electric-acoustic violin from Series+. 🎻
The offices were super nice and the people working there even nicer and super welcoming! ☺️
I'm really lucky to have the best people working with me and looking forward for this relationship with @eastmanstrings to grow...✨
