Description
The Eastman Model 605 5/8 Bass Outfit combines traditional master workshop craftsmanship with thoughtful modern playability to create a responsive, expressive upright bass for advancing and serious musicians. Built under the direction of experienced luthiers and inspired by refined European bass-making traditions, the Model 605 delivers exceptional projection, tonal warmth, and long-term performance.
Featuring a hand-carved spruce top paired with beautifully selected tonewoods, the Model 605 is designed to produce a rich, resonant sound with excellent clarity and dynamic response. The violin-corner body design contributes to a focused tonal character and refined articulation while maintaining strong low-end presence.
Finished with Eastman’s distinctive shaded spirit varnish process, the instrument offers both visual depth and tonal openness. The ergonomic 5/8 size makes this bass an excellent fit for players seeking greater comfort and control without sacrificing sound.
This complete outfit includes a premium Pernambuco French-style wood bow and a padded bass bag for protection and convenient transport.
