Aria

A first Hellborg signature model was created in collaboration with Japanese guitar company Aria in 1980. It featured a neck thru design with an Ash body and it was used on the Reebop and all our steps recordings.

Sound of Sweden

"Sound of Sweden" was the name of a brand Jonas created with some friends in order to produce the Jonas Hellborg bass in '82-'84.

He also created an amplifier line, in partnership FBT, based in Recanati, Italy. It was the first biamped bass amplifier, in which each cabinet had its own power amp - one for the 15" and one for the 2x12".

Wall

The double-neck Wall was built in '83. A fretted neck on top and a frettless one at the bottom, this monster weighed around 18 kgs and it stayed around Jonas' neck for most of the touring period with

Mahavishnu and John McLaughlin.
