Alpher Mako
Currently out of stock but available as a custom order.
Stunning example of British design and craftsmanship… this is the sister bass to our Mako 4 string.
Superb playability and tones… in fact, with the active and passive choice and the bridge pickup options, a very versatile bass, fully handbuilt in tiny numbers in God’s own country (Yorkshire!!!).
