About Belforti Basses
The Belforti bass collection redefines the foundations of electric bass design through precision craftsmanship and modern ergonomics.
Each model — the MARE and VEA — reinterprets a timeless archetype with compact proportions, seamless playability, and tonal depth tailored to professional performance.
Handcrafted in Paris, Belforti basses merge engineering accuracy, acoustic balance, and aesthetic refinement for musicians who demand more than tradition.
Professional Electric Basses Handcrafted in Paris
Every Belforti bass features innovations born from practical experience:
a no-heel neck joint for unrestricted upper-fret access, titanium reinforcement for long-term stability, and invisible fret tangs for exceptional feel and durability.
The spokewheel truss system ensures effortless, precise neck adjustment — a professional feature standard across the entire lineup.
Each instrument undergoes CNC machining, PLEK fret calibration, and hand finishing to guarantee the highest playability and tonal consistency.
MARE and VEA — Modern Interpretations of the Classics
The MARE refines the Jazz-style bass into a more compact, ergonomic form while expanding its tonal range through multiple pickup and preamp options.
It’s an instrument built for versatility, dynamic response, and clarity in any genre.
The VEA evolves the Precision-style bass, replacing bulk with balance and offering a focused, powerful tone with improved comfort and modern construction.
Both share Belforti’s Paris-built DNA: precision machining, structural integrity, and tonal authority.
Customization and Finishing
Each Belforti bass is available in Essential, Masterbuilt, and Signature series, providing a range of customization options in tonewoods, finishes, and electronics.
Players can select from Belforti’s extensive color palette of 82 finishes — from subtle matte solids to metallic bursts and deep translucent shades.
Every instrument uses Belforti’s proprietary polyurethane finishing process, ultra-thin yet durable, preserving resonance and feel.
Why Choose a Belforti Bass
A Belforti bass is not just handmade — it is digitally engineered and hand-refined.
Precision machining guarantees perfect geometry, while human touch ensures musicality and soul.
Whether you’re a touring bassist, studio musician, or collector, each Belforti instrument offers a rare equilibrium between modern playability, classic tone, and French craftsmanship.
