The Cremona SB-2 is a 1/2 size double bass designed for students and ensemble musicians seeking reliable performance at an accessible price point. Its select spruce top generates powerful, clear tones with excellent projection, while the maple back, sides, and neck create a focused, punchy attack ideal for group playing. Practical upgrades include an ebonite fingerboard paired with ebony hardware—nut, saddle, and tailpiece—that deliver both visual appeal and exceptional durability. Built to handle regular use in school programs, bands, and practice studios, this instrument balances affordability with craftsmanship.
