Classic bass design with high playing comfort

In the construction of the Gloxy Val 5-String Bass Markbass pays special attention to comfortable playing characteristics and a clean output of the B-string. The traditionally styled basswood body promises optimal balance on both the strap and the thigh, while generous shaping on the front and back ensures a comfortable fit on the player. The bolt-on maple neck also features a narrow C-profile with a nut width of just 36 mm, promising extremely agile playing characteristics even during long gigs or studio sessions.

Flexible sound with pickups and electronics from Markbass

The Markbass Gloxy Val's flexible electronics elicit versatile bass tones from the bass amp, providing the right foundation for almost any style of music. Two Markbass J-style single-coil pickups provide traditional sounds with a deep yet transparent low end or wiry assertiveness that also reproduce the H-string with punch and precision. The active Markbass 3-band equalizer allows the precise adjustment of the tone. If desired, the bass guitar can be played in traditional passive mode, with a dedicated treble slider to adjust the sound.

Traditional Hardware

Last but not least, Markbass completes the GV5 Gloxy Val Surf Green CR MP E-Bass with a traditional and indestructible hardware setup. On the body, a classic 5-saddle bridge ensures precise intonation and string action adjustment. The distinctive lacquered "Mark Double Shape" headstock also features vintage-style tuners that guarantee a robust and precise tuning of the electric bass.
