Description

[Guitar Summit 2025 exhibit model]
This guitar has a 35 inch + Limba body and a great, growling, tight low B!

The instruments made by Dutch luthier Nikola Adamovic, who operates under the concept of "The Art of Bass Design," are carefully handmade using only the finest woods that he sources and seasons himself, with an expert eye for rare woods, and combined with high-quality custom electronics such as Haeussel Pickups and Glockenklang.
This ergonomically designed bass combines an organic tone that makes use of the natural tone of the wood, a smooth and beautiful form, and excellent playability, attracting attention from bass enthusiasts around the world, especially technical players.

Get your hands on Adamovic, which was exhibited at Guitar Summit 2025 held in Germany!

This 5-string Saturn model showcases the Wenge grain, typical of Adamovich, who specializes in dark-colored tops. It measures 35 inches, a rare find in Japan, and the body is crafted from Nicola's favorite Limba wood, paired with a 5-piece Guariuba/Wenge neck.

The Guariuba/Wenge 5P neck, popular for its warm tone, is now difficult to obtain, and it is no longer possible to specify a specific neck. However, this instrument was apparently the last one they had in stock for a show. While it certainly has a warmer tone than the maple-filled versions, the sound is still solid and solid. Compared to other instruments from the same brand that tend to have a fairly hard, tight neck resonance, this one has a nice sense of movement and is truly worth playing.

The pickups are two "Bassbar" pickups that contribute to a warm and powerful tone. For even more powerful bass, the rear pickup has been shifted 3mm toward the neck. Combined with the powerful sound of the 35-inch scale, this produces a distinctive, growling low B. Boosting the EQ also produces a powerful active sound reminiscent of MTD instruments, making this a guitar with a unique appeal unlike any we've stocked to date. Switching to passive pickups doesn't diminish its charm at all, and the Adamo's characteristic rustic, woody tone remains intact.

The popular Adamovic is back in stock!
