MARE Model | Modern Jazz-Style Bass by Belforti Instruments

Precision. Agility. Expression.

The Marē is Belforti’s modern reinterpretation of the Jazz-style bass — compact, fluid, and built for expressive performance.

Every contour has been refined to enhance balance and comfort, giving the player complete control without fatigue.

It retains the articulation and dynamic nuance of its classic inspiration, now paired with Belforti’s advanced ergonomics and precision engineering.

The Essence of Versatility

Compact Design, Expansive Tone

Designed for players who demand both clarity and flexibility, the Marē offers a tonal range that adapts effortlessly to any style or stage.

Its refined body contour sits naturally against the player, while the no-heel neck joint ensures unrestricted access across the register.

Every note speaks with definition, balance, and touch-sensitive dynamics — from warm vintage tones to tight modern attack.

Inspired by the calm power of Maré’s coral shores.

The Marē takes its name from Maré, one of New Caledonia’s Loyalty Islands — a place of striking contrasts where coral cliffs meet calm, translucent lagoons. This balance between stillness and intensity mirrors the essence of the Marē bass: compact and serene in form, yet capable of deep, resonant power.

It’s a tribute to harmony in opposites — lightness and depth, precision and soul — the same qualities that define Belforti’s approach to sound and design.

Precision Meets Expression

Precision Engineering, Musical Freedom

Every detail of the Marē has been developed to merge ergonomic comfort with sonic adaptability.

Its compact chassis hides a deeply engineered core: titanium-reinforced necks for long-term stability, invisible fret tangs for perfect feel, and a spokewheel truss system for instant, on-the-fly adjustment.

Available with passive or active Belforti electronics, the Marē responds instantly to touch and technique, delivering rich harmonic content and impeccable note definition.

From articulate studio clarity to the authority of the live stage, it remains true to one purpose — to translate every nuance of the player into effortless sound.
