Key Features
The Ortega D558 Medium Scale Electro Acoustic Bass is a sublime natural beauty that exudes a truly enchanting sound. Its stunning spruce top makes for the ultimate soundboard, delivering exceptional dynamics and wonderfully crisp clarity, so even when unplugged, you can count on a dynamic, immersive acoustic tone. You'll then have walnut back and sides providing a beautifully bright tone that gradually gets warmer and more exquisite with age.
Loaded onto the upper bout of the grand auditorium shape is the Ortega MagusPro Bass preamp, an easy-to-use system that allows for supreme, sparkling amplification. Whether you're in the studio or on stage, every nuance of acoustic tone will be picked up on and delivered with oomph. Plus, thanks to the cutaway design of the body, you'll also be able to perform with complete effortlessness, rocketing right to the top frets without anything in your way.

With a woody midrange and a tone that gets more beautiful with age, walnut is the perfect tonewood for bassists. The more you play, the warmer and softer your sound will become, allowing for endless tonal possibilities. You'll then have the dazzling beauty of a solid spruce top taking centre stage in both looks and tone. Floating exquisitely from spruce are a wealth of dynamics and glistening clarity, ensuring every note reaches your audience and keeps them hooked.
The D558 Medium Scale Bass is loaded with MagusPro electronics, a system that has been specifically designed for the bass. With a 3-band EQ, 2-colour display, Phase and Volume controls, as well as an easy-to-use tuner, the preamp makes it effortless to sculpt your sound with immaculate precision. And a piezo pickup is included, ensuring all those low frequencies are responded to with clarity - a must for the bass.
