Mayones Jabba HF 5 Fretless - Monolith White

Mayones has earned a reputation for crafting some of the world's finest handmade electric guitars and basses from its workshop in Gdańsk, Poland. Every instrument is built by skilled luthiers, blending time-honored craftsmanship with modern manufacturing techniques and premium components. The result is an instrument with exceptional attention to detail, effortless playability, and the kind of refinement that can only come from meticulous hands-on construction.

Designed in collaboration with renowned French contemporary jazz bassist Hadrien Feraud, the Jabba HF 5 takes the expressive character of the Jabba and pushes it into wonderfully fluid territory. Finished in striking Monolith White, this bass has an unmistakable modern presence, while its fretless Pau Ferro fingerboard with resin construction gives every note a smooth, singing quality and encourages a completely different approach to the instrument. There is an almost vocal quality to a great fretless bass, and the Jabba HF captures that beautifully, allowing notes to glide, bloom, and move effortlessly beneath your fingers.

Plugged in, the Jabba HF 5 Fretless is every bit as versatile as its fretted counterpart. The Delano JMVC bass pickups and Musashi 3-band preamp deliver an expansive tonal palette, from warm and woody vintage textures to articulate, punchy modern tones. The fretless design adds another dimension to that versatility, giving you the ability to explore subtle vibrato, expressive slides, and beautifully fluid phrasing. With its built-in headphone and Aux jacks, it's equally at home in the studio, on the couch, or onstage. Whether you're playing jazz, fusion, funk, or anything that demands a more expressive voice, this is a bass that invites you to forget the frets and simply follow the music.

"When I needed to own a bass that would be utterly versatile from Pop music to Straight ahead Jazz with a lot of punch, clarity, sustain, great comfort, an awesome look and last but not least, light weighted, I called Dawid and here is the result! Extremely proud and grateful for this collaboration, Dawid and his team at Mayones guitars & basses never cease to amaze me. Please see and try it yourself!" - Hadrien Feraud
