The new Jabba Mala Due 5 builds on the legacy of the original model with a set of refined upgrades. Featuring the brand-new Velvetrone Stark humbuckers in elegant P2 covers and the powerful Mayones Musashi preamp, it delivers a richer, more versatile tone than ever before.

With a built-in headphone amp and AUX input, the Mala Due 5 is not only stage-ready but also perfect for practice and recording anywhere. A fresh look and modern electronics make it a true evolution of Federico Malaman’s signature instrument.

5-string bass perfected

The iconic slim headstock, now in an even more minimalistic form.

Federico chose our most popular RAW finish for a natural look and feel, paired with a Rosewood fingerboard and a comfortable 9.5″ radius.

New Velvetrone® Pickups

Punch, precision, and unmistakable character.

Built on ceramic magnets, the new Velvetrone® Stark pickups in a narrow housing keep the bass looking sleek while delivering the same clarity and power as the classic Stark models. 

At your fingertips

The Mala Due plays as good as it looks

Chrome Mayones Bigfoot bridge was the obvious choice, complemented by a color Federico loves. The familiar control features a Volume pot with push-pull for active/passive mode.

State-of-the-Art bass preamp

Built in aux input & headphone out

At Federico’s request, the Mala Due 5 comes with our Internal Power SupplyUSB charging system, and a built-in headphone amp with AUX input – making it perfect for practice and creativity anywhere.

“This bass feels like a fresh breath of inspiration – it brings a new vibe, a new sound, and even a little bit of a new me. The Jabba Mala Due is the bass you didn’t know you needed – until you play it.”
