The instruments of this style, such as those of Gasparo Bertoletti da Salo, Maggini, and Rogeri, are dramatically characterized by their generous proportions and powerful projection. This allows the Brescian to be outstanding jazz and soloist upright basses! The style was brought to England by Vincenzo Panormo in the 18th century, influencing builders such as Lott, Kennedy, Fendt, and Hawkes over generations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Let us help you find your perfect sound.

These qualities combine to create a larger air mass with great resonance and rich harmonics, packaged with the ergonomics, geometry, and accessibility that modern players expect from Upton Bass.

Just hear it with a C extension and you&#8217;ll be blown away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Brescian can be set up for jazz pushing the rhythm section with tremendous string response. While the Brescian is a sought after jazz double bass, when bowed for classical music, deep and clearly pitched pipe-organ lows will lift the string section. As one of our most flexible models, roots and bluegrass players will feel the increased depth, string feel and boom in every note. And as with all Upton Basses, whether you want a powerful jazz double bass or want to bow for classical music, we will plan with you directly to make sure we craft an instrument that is truly yours. Players rave our instruments sound old when they are new. As Gary says &#8220;a good bass is a good bass, age only makes it better&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-brescian-is-available-in-three-build-styles-with-a-full-array-of-add-on-and-upgrade-items-to-choose-from\">The Brescian is available in three build styles, with a full array of add on and upgrade items to choose from:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Hybrid Flat Back, <strong><em>from<\/em> $9,000<\/strong><br>Solid Wood Flat Back, <strong><em>from<\/em> $12,500<\/strong><br>Solid Wood Round Back, <strong><em>from<\/em> $15,000<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*We have entirely custom commission slots available at all times and amazing tone wood selections to build you something truly one of a kind.
