The Marē Signature represents the full expression of Belforti’s craftsmanship — a modern Jazz-inspired bass built for players who demand individuality, sophistication, and depth.

Every detail is refined, every contour deliberate, and every sound intentional.

It’s not just a performance tool — it’s an extension of the musician’s identity, merging art and engineering into one seamless experience.

The Art of Elegance

The Marē Signature carries the same compact proportions and natural balance as its predecessors but elevates every detail through handcrafted refinement.

Its sculpted body flows organically, emphasizing both comfort and visual harmony.

Each piece of tonewood is hand-selected for resonance and visual character, ensuring that no two instruments are ever the same.

It’s a bass that feels sculpted rather than built — smooth, fluid, and deeply personal.

The Art of Expression

Sonically, the Marē Signature expands on the open, articulate voice of the Marē lineage.

Its tone is rich and layered — deep lows that stay tight and musical, articulate mids that sing, and clear, responsive highs.

Every nuance of touch translates into tone, with sustain and depth that fill the space effortlessly.

It’s an instrument that rewards sensitivity, giving back exactly what the player puts in.

Electronics & Control

Equipped with a pair of Seymour Duncan NYC Soapbars, the Marē Signature delivers an exceptionally versatile and expressive sound.

These dual-coil pickups combine the focus of a traditional Jazz layout with the power and refinement of a modern design — hum-free, responsive, and full of harmonic depth.

Paired with an active onboard preamp, they allow precise tonal sculpting without losing the instrument’s organic resonance.

It’s a setup designed to reveal every nuance of touch and technique, with clarity that cuts through in any mix.
