Overwater x Timbreworks

Timbreworks is proud to be the exclusive representative for Overwater here in Singapore and the region.

We fully align in our approach to music and instruments. We subscribe to Overwater's philosophy, which is and has always been, to treat electric basses fundamentally and in the first instance, as acoustic instruments. By combining the properties of selected tone woods and bespoke hardware, the team at Overwater has created an instrument that offers a naturally resonant response, balanced across the frequency range and with a fundamental tonality that comes directly from the materials from which the instrument is constructed.

Overwater electronics are usually ‘flat response’ when in the neutral position – meaning there is no colouration or pre-shape to the sound until the EQ section is engaged. Designed to produce a clean, quiet, full range output signal and offer the player a versatile and usable means of adjusting the tone and dynamics their sound, Overwater electronics are configured as a conduit by which the natural character of the instrument and that of the player, can be transferred accurately to their chosen means of amplification.

As such, we achieve that Piano-like clarity.

Together with Overwater, we strive to offer the player the means by which to express themselves without compromise. Overwater has worked with musicians from all musical, cultural and stylistic backgrounds, learning directly from them as players, and enabling the development of a range of basses that will fit into most styles of music and playing situations.

The Overwater name has become synonymous with some of the finest hand crafted bass guitars in the world – and to date over four thousand instruments have been built by the Overwater team in the UK.
