ToneRite® Double Bass: 2G

The Double Bass ToneRite was initially developed as a custom product for a professional musician.  After we finished its development, both luthiers and professional musicians that tested this version of the ToneRite urged us to make it available to the public.  Every aspect of the ToneRite® has been meticulously crafted and designed to ensure optimal performance and safety.  The ToneRite® fits over the bridge of a double bass and transfers energy into the body via the same physics as when it is being bowed.

The ToneRite® works by relieving the tensions inherit in wooden acoustic instruments.   A new or even moderately played instrument has a tendancy to have a lot of individual components that resonate independantly.  By transferring certain types of energy to an instrument for a period of time the ToneRite® can cause the instrument to resonate as a whole and as a result your instrument becomes incredibly responsive, problem notes improve, less bow pressure is required, the sound comes more quickly with less effort and the overall quality of tone increases.

An initial ToneRite® treatment of 72 hours is recommended and this will be the first step in achieving your instruments top potential.  Subsequent treatments will be required to maintain and further develop your instrument.  The ToneRite® is not designed to make a poor instrument great, it is simply designed to bring out the best in an instrument.  Your instrument will retain its individual character but will be better balanced with more tone and playability.

The ToneRite® 2G is handmade to order in the U.S.A.

"The ToneRite is brilliant! The change is way more evident than I had imagined it would be. My bass is open and free, with considerably more low-end. As a full-time composer, I rarely get to play as much as I like to. This device keeps the bass in the sort of shape it would be in if I was on it for hours a day, and it's far more ready-to-go when I need it for recording."
