Khumbila Bass — Himalayan Amber Flame

There are instruments built to perform—and then there are instruments built to endure.

The Khumbila Bass stands as a statement of refinement and intent, where rare Himalayan tonewoods meet uncompromising craftsmanship. Every curve, every contour, and every detail is shaped with purpose—resulting in an instrument that feels as exceptional as it looks.

At its foundation lies a 5-piece neck-through construction, crafted from Himalayan ash and rosewood. This architecture delivers remarkable sustain, structural integrity, and a fluid, uninterrupted playing experience—allowing the instrument to respond with effortless precision across its entire range.

The body begins with a figured Nepali alder core, chosen for its balanced tonal character, and is crowned with an exotic figured Himalayan ash top from our most select collection. Finished in Himalayan Amber Flame, the surface reveals a deep, three-dimensional figure—an interplay of molten gold, aged amber, and shadowed depth that evolves with every shift of light.

The East Indian rosewood fingerboard is adorned with our signature “Himal” inlays, a subtle tribute to the mountain silhouettes that inspire our work. Paired with stainless steel frets, the playing surface offers a sense of permanence—smooth, precise, and unwavering over time.

At its sonic core, the Khumbila is equipped with Fluence Bass pickups, delivering a voice that is both modern and authoritative. Exceptional clarity, extended dynamic range, and a noise-free signal allow every nuance of your playing to translate with striking definition.

Premium hardware completes the experience. A Hipshot bridge anchors the instrument with stability and sustain, while Graph Tech Ratio tuners provide a uniquely balanced and intuitive tuning response—ensuring absolute control at every adjustment.

Handcrafted in Nepal, the Khumbila Bass is not simply built—it is composed. A convergence of material, design, and intention, created for players who demand more than performance alone.
