This stunning piece comes from the hands of Italian luthier Bruno Bacci, based in Tuscany. With a background not only in instrument building but also in design, metallurgy, and other creative fields, Bacci brings a refined, artistic touch to everything he creates—and this bass is no exception.

The body design strikes a beautiful balance between smooth curves and defined edges. It's compact and easy to hold, offering great comfort. The flame maple neck is visually striking, with thoughtful details like the side markers and inlays that really reflect the artistic spirit of Italy. The custom bridge is another highlight—it allows for both top-loading and string-through setups, and it’s currently strung through the back only on the 4th string.

The vibrant color is eye-catching and unlike anything you'd typically see from Japanese or American-made instruments. Finished in a style inspired by the word “Parato”—meaning tapestry or wallpaper—the look feels deeply rooted in both the maker’s personality and Italian culture.

Sonically, it leans more toward a Jazz Bass character than you might expect from the looks, but it’s far from generic. It’s not Japanese, not American—it’s got its own voice. While some European instruments have a distinctly “organic” and sometimes uniform tone, this one doesn’t fall into that mold. It has its own unique identity.

Where an instrument is built absolutely matters—each region has its own atmosphere and sonic tendencies. But ultimately, how much of the builder’s vision and personality comes through depends on their passion and skill.

In this case, Bacci has created a brand that’s a perfect blend of Tuscany’s landscape, his own experience, craftsmanship, and creative sensibility.

At its core, this bass stays true to the classic passive Jazz Bass concept, making it instantly approachable even for players who’ve typically stayed away from active instruments. Its natural tone and intuitive feel form the foundation, while the extended control options offer a wide range of tonal possibilities—perfectly suited for modern sound shaping.

Thanks to its meticulous craftsmanship, the playing experience is smooth and comfortable. The clean, understated aesthetics and well-balanced overall design showcase the brand’s signature blend of quality, versatility, and performance—making it a great choice for all kinds of players, including female musicians looking for both form and function.

This particular model features an alder body and rosewood fingerboard—a classic and proven wood combination. It’s equipped with Lindy Fralin pickups, known for their clarity and definition. With a strong midrange presence, the sound holds its own in a band mix without getting lost.

The nitrocellulose finish enhances the natural resonance of the wood, allowing for a wide dynamic range. With all elements working in harmony, it brings out the full potential of what this brand can deliver—no exaggeration.

Finished in a soft, delicate shade of purple, this bass also reflects the brand’s refined sense of color and visual expression.
