The Story
The Toby Deluxe IV was designed by Michael Tobias and features the classic ergonomic body shape that bassists find so easy to play, providing a focused, ‘finished’ sound that has all the punch of an upright bass with all the clear detail of an electric. And now, the Toby Deluxe IV comes with an Active TonexpressorTM Bass Enhancement Control for making creative blends and fine adjustments to cut through dense mixes.
