Alberto Rigoni signs an Alusonic 5-string hybrid bass guitar that combines wood and aluminum alloy.
The Rigoni Signature is the first Alusonic hybrid model signed by an artist. The italian manufacturer also offers standard 4 and 5-string versions.
The patent pending Hybrid design is made of layers of selected woods and aluminum alloy (in sandwich), which allows, according to Alusonic, a warm and rich sound with a lot of sustain and a great attack, with a decreased weight (it still weighs 4.3kg).
