Know as the highest peak in Africa, the Kilimanjaro was designed and improved step by step with Richard Bonauntil we came to the final result that satisfied at 100% Richard, Marco and any bass player who had the chance to try the very first samples we made. We’re really proud of this amazing instrument, a lute manufactured bass that includes all our passion and experience.

Our attitude of exploring new solutions led us to select native wood such as the Val di Fiemme Spruce, which was used for centuries by master luthiers to produce classical bowed instruments thanks to its elasticity and unique resonance and then combined it with a beautiful Abruzzo Olive top*.

The frequency values have been chosen to offer a wide range of tones that you can use on any setting. The TONE control (working also in the passive mode) has been defined by Richard as the “G Point” because of its accurate efficacy letting to move from smooth and warm tones to bright and hi-fi ones, everything in a one of a kind “sensual” way.
