Here’s a shot of our Enrico ¼ size Laminated Student bass. It’s right ready to move to your
home or school after having had some pre-delivery time in the String Tech workshop.
We would like to share our thoughts on this great little bass in the hope you will understand
why we stock and endorse the Enrico product.
Firstly, the Enrico brand is aimed fair and square at the entry point student level so price is
important, they are affordable. Supplied with bow [German or French frog optional] and a
robust padded bag, the outfit is great value. Other noteworthy features include quality
machine heads for accurate tuning and a bridge with height adjusting wheels which allow
string height to be varied according to prevailing atmospheric conditions. The endpin
assembly is heavy duty, deliberately fashioned to cope with those careless moments young
players experience too often. But that’s not all….
Decades of experience at the importer level have seen Enrico basses evolve from very humble
beginnings to the robust instruments we now use. How has this happened?
Year by year, the product has been refined, re-working features which have proved
unsuitable. Material thickness, so important for tonal projection, have been modified
relevant to model size. A Solid Spruce Top version has been added. Varnish treatment has
been updated after market feedback. Factory string selection has been reviewed and
updated. Finally, and all importantly, packaging and freight handling have been re-worked to
minimize damage during shipping. Losses due to careless freight treatment are now rare.
With four models of violins/violas, two models of cellos and basses, Enrico has become the
most accessible, affordable student stringed instrument range currently available in Australia.
