You could be playing this Enrico Quarter Size Double Bass TODAY!


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. At The Music Spot, we support the best product in it’s class, That’s ENRICO

From the Admiral series we have the TA300-E, which features solid Mahogany back and layered Mahogany sides, producing balanced warm tones, strong volume and good treble response.

The Captain series guitars are made with Rosewood back and sides for louder volume and bass response - the perfect range for acoustic performers. We have several to choose from, including the TA200GS-CE, the TA200O-E and the TA200-E.

But Tasman also produce a genuine workhorse range, the Seeker series, built for performance and dependability. Featuring Sapele back and sides for a rich and warm sound and clear treble tones, we have the TA100, TA100-CE and two Parlour size guitars, the TA100P and TA100P-E.

Did we mention that all Tasman guitars come with a premium hard case to protect your new guitar?

The Tasman Guitar Co. is dedicated to the pursuit of innovation and excellence in guitar making, for serious and pro players who want a unique voice through a unique guitar. The instruments they produce reflect this dedication and innovation, and they are determined to provide our customers with the best experience, from the first moment they decide to look for a new guitar.

We gave the Drummer the Key to the Door, and other stories

What a week it's been at The Music Spot!

First up on Monday we celebrated Chris turning 21, and YES there was cake!

Happy Birthday Chris!
We had (as always!) a few floor layout reshuffles, and redesigned our Acoustic area. I personally think it looks great - check out our multi-layered approach: 









Three levels of Acoustic Guitars - lots to choose from! 











In other departments, Johnny was excited to report that we now have the Yamaha PSRS970 back in stock - this is a special instrument so be sure to come have a play for yourself.



A few more things came in, a few more things went out, and life goes on. If you haven't been to our superstore in Browns Plains, Queensland then you are definitely missing out!
