Description

Current global market dynamics have influenced customers’ sensitivity towards product pricing. This focus is one of the main reasons that inspired the birth of the GLOXY series. For this family of instruments we implemented a new philosophy for the manufacturing and procurement of raw materials, components and equipment – as always, without compromise. GV SERIES is our range of bass guitars that demonstrate our ability to produce a high quality instrument at an incredible price. This achievement is a direct result of our tireless work to compare the quality and price of parts and materials from a wide range of suppliers. We chose only the best components for our Gloxy series, maintaining our focus on excellent value for money. In response to the many requests from a passive bass enthusiasts, we have decided to add a new model to the product line of this series – GLOXY GV Passive, in 4 or 5 string versions. It features separate volume control for each of the two J-style pickups and a simple tone control to roll off highs, leaving you the pure sound of the instrument with natural attack, touch-sensitive dynamics and also punchy, round, fat tone perfect for organic genres like jazz, blues, rock… and should you need more tone-shaping options, you can always pair the instrument with a Markbass amp!
