Bring the full power of a six‑string range and boutique build quality with the Mattisson HL‑6TT. This instrument offers an expansive low‑to‑high range, giving bassists access to deep growls and soaring melodies in one polished package. The Natural Walnut finish and refined body shape not only look elegant but also ensure feel and balance whether you’re on stage or in the studio.
What truly sets the HL‑6TT apart is its precision fretting: the patented True Temperament fret system provides perfect intonation across the entire fretboard, eliminating common tuning inconsistencies and enabling clean, harmonically rich chords and notes at any position. Combined with high‑end dual EMG humbucking pickups and custom active electronics, this bass delivers clarity, punch, and dynamic responsiveness that suit everything from jazz and fusion to rock, metal, or ambient grooves.
Construction is top‑tier: a multi-piece neck built for stability and ergonomic comfort, a solid resonant body for sustain and warmth, and premium hardware — including a high‑ratio tuning machine and adjustable bridge — for reliable tuning, playability, and tone shaping. Whether you’re recording, performing, or practicing, the HL‑6TT feels like a pro‑level instrument built to last.
