Made for a great friend and musician from Cintra
T
he Cintra Bass CV was born from a special custom order by a close friend from Sintra, Adriano’s hometown—and the inspiration behind its name. More than an instrument, it’s a personal homage, shaped by connection and crafted with intent. Built from figured Honduras mahogany, lacewood, and roasted flame maple, this bass blends tonewood excellence with precise, hand-carved detail.
From its custom single-coil Pascoal Brisa pickup to its cymbal brass cover plates, every element speaks of individuality, elegance, and the ongoing dialogue between player and maker.
