The Marē 4 Signature is a four-string bass built for players who refuse to compromise — on tone, on feel, or on beauty. A showcase of premium tonewoods and boutique electronics, every material choice reinforces the next.
A redwood body frames a stunning birdseye maple top, its natural figuring extending seamlessly through the matching neck and fretboard. Stainless steel frets and custom burgundy routed inlays complete a playing surface that is as precise as it is distinctive. Delano Xtender pickups and a Glockenklang preamp deliver a tonal palette that moves from deep, pillowy lows to glassy highs with effortless control — finished in gold hardware throughout.
The Marē 4 Signature is not a production instrument. It is a commission — a bass built to last a lifetime.

Redwood is a rare and exceptional choice for instrument bodies — a tonewood as distinctive in sound as it is in appearance. Lightweight and highly resonant, it sits in a tonal sweet spot between the warmth of mahogany and the clarity of alder, producing a rich, complex fundamental with excellent sustain and natural compression. Its deep amber-to-sienna coloring, straight grain, and silky surface texture make it one of the most visually striking tonewoods available, and one of the least commonly seen on a boutique build.
Neck : Birdseye Maple
Birdseye maple is one of the most sought-after tonewoods in boutique instrument building — prized equally for its visual character and its acoustic properties. The dense, tight grain delivers a fast, snappy attack with excellent note definition and long-term stability, resisting the seasonal movement that affects less consistent woods. No two birdseye pieces share the same figuring pattern, making every neck carved from it inherently unique.
Fretboard : Birdseye Maple
Harder and brighter-sounding than rosewood or ebony, maple fretboards contribute a crisp, defined tone with a smooth, fast playing surface that responds well to both light and aggressive technique. Birdseye maple adds a visual dimension that sets it apart from plain maple — its characteristic swirling eye-shaped figure catching light differently across every board. A classic choice for players who want clarity, precision, and a fretboard that ages beautifully with use.

Birdseye Maple
Few tonewoods command attention the way birdseye maple does. Characterized by its dense concentration of small, swirling eye-shaped figures scattered across the surface, it is one of the rarest naturally occurring wood phenomena — the result of unusual grain distortion during growth, and impossible to cultivate or predict. No two tops are alike, and highly figured pieces are considered collector-grade material in their own right.
Acoustically, birdseye maple contributes brightness, sustain, and a tight low-end response that pairs well with warmer body woods beneath it. As a top, it adds definition and articulation to the overall voice of the instrument without overpowering the tonal character of the core. Under a clear finish, the figuring takes on a three-dimensional, almost liquid quality — shifting and shimmering as the light angle changes, making it as alive to the eye as the instrument is to the ear.
Delano's Xtender series represents a reference point in boutique bass pickup design. The quad-coil architecture delivers full, even response across the string range with virtually no hum, while retaining the organic character and punch that passive-voiced pickups are known for. Wide dynamic range, exceptional clarity, and a natural sensitivity to playing nuance make the Xtenders a trusted choice among professional players and custom instrument builders alike.

Glockenklang 3 Band
Designed and manufactured in Germany, the Glockenklang 3-band preamp is widely regarded as one of the benchmark active electronics solutions in high-end bass building. Its wide yet musical EQ range enhances rather than colors the natural voice of the instrument, with bass, mid, and treble controls that respond with exceptional transparency. Clean, quiet, and precise — it preserves the fundamental character of the pickups and tonewoods it works with, rather than imposing a sound of its own.
