Unique Features

This Emperor II 5 Elite features an Indian Rosewood fingerboard, Walnut body, and Alder tone block, giving it a warm tone with a super deep low end and velvety yet articulate highs.

Completing the package for this instrument is the solid Chestnut Burl top, which has an incredible heart-shaped design laying over the two matching wooden pickup covers!

This is a bass that makes you want to stare at it for hours.  However, with a tone like one you will want to play it for even longer!
