MAYONES Nobleking 5 (Antique Brown)

The new "Nobleking," the successor to the Mayones Viking, has just arrived!

Since its founding in 1982, MAYONES (also pronounced Mayones or Mayones) has gained popularity mainly in Europe and the United States with its unique lineup and reliable quality. Its user list includes a host of top players, such as Hadrien Feraud, Mohini Dey (who was also selected as a tour member for B'z), Nathan Navarro, and Federico Malaman.

This model, the "Nobleking," further refines the body design inherited from the Wojtek Pilichowski model to the Viking, evolving into a model boasting high playability.
This guitar features a through-neck construction with a wenge and maple neck and ebony fingerboard. The body back wings are made of carefully 3D contoured swamp ash, and the body top is made of beautifully figured selected ash. By sandwiching wenge between the top and back, it creates a distinct contrast in both sound and appearance.
Furthermore, the neck features graphite reinforcement and a double-action truss rod, ensuring high stability and ease of setup, even when used in Japan.

With its wood composition of ash, wenge, ebony, and maple, and electronics such as Mayones' original Velvetron pickups and Musashi preamp, this guitar produces a solid low end, sparkling mid-to-high frequencies without being overpowering, and a crisp attack. It's well-suited for Mark King-esque slap styles, but the neck-through construction ensures a well-balanced sound from low to high frequencies, producing a resonant low B. It's not too focused on any particular style, and its design makes it suitable for aggressive rock styles played with a pick as well.

This unit's preamp can be switched between a 9V battery and a rechargeable battery, and it also features a headphone jack and AUX input, so you can easily practice in hotels while on tour without needing any other equipment, which really meets the needs of modern players.

In recent years, more traditional Jabba models have been imported into Japan than original designs, so I think many people have been waiting for this type. Please give it a try.
