MarkBass Gloxy Kimandu 5-String Bass Richard Bona Signature Tone - Black

A premium-feel modern 5-string designed with Richard Bona, the MarkBass Gloxy Kimandu 5 delivers professional tone, smooth playability and Italian quality inspection at an accessible price. Comes with MB Universal Bass Gig Bag.

KEY FEATURES

  • Designed with Richard Bona: Signature Kimandu-inspired body for balance, ergonomics and modern performance
  • MB Instrument Pre: Transparent active/passive switching with powerful EQ shaping and minimal volume change
  • MarkBass soapbar pickups: Clear, dynamic, articulate tone across all five strings
  • Ultra-finished maple neck: Smooth, fast-playing feel built for low-action performance
  • Selected maple fingerboard: 24 frets, 34" scale for modern reach and precise feel
  • Ninja-style bolt-on body: Lightweight, comfortable and stage-ready
  • 18 mm string spacing: Ideal for fingerstyle, slapping and contemporary technique
  • Italian quality assurance: Each instrument checked at Markbass HQ for consistent setup and playability
  • MB Universal Bass Gig Bag included: Rugged protection supplied as standard
  • High-value Gloxy series: Globally sourced components with Italian QC for maximum performance per dollar

The Gloxy Kimandu 5 brings Richard Bona's signature design into a value-first series without cutting sonic or ergonomic corners. The Kimandu-shaped body and deep lower cutaway give excellent upper-fret access. The contoured back and slim neck encourage long, comfortable sessions, whether seated or standing. Tone comes from MarkBass soapbar pickups and the MB Instrument Pre—the same preamp circuitry used on higher-tier models—giving transparent active tones and smooth passive response with virtually no volume drop when switching modes.

Construction focuses on playability and consistency: an ultra-finished maple neck and selected maple fingerboard offer fast action and clear articulation across all five strings. The ninja-style bolt-on body keeps weight down for gigging musicians while maintaining balanced resonance. Each instrument is inspected and set up in Italy to ensure a reliable setup when removed from the gig bag.

Who it's for:

Bassists who want a professional playing experience and signature feel without the premium price. Ideal for session players, touring musicians on a budget, and anyone seeking a modern 5-string with dependable onboard tone shaping.
