{"product_id":"855946","title":"Three Dots Guitars JB (Ash\/TWH\/R) [Special Price]","description":"[Limited Quantity Special Price]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Due to product replacement, we are offering a limited quantity at a super special price!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Three Dots Guitars basses were founded with the concept of providing instruments that offer the playability and reliability to be used immediately in professional settings, and at an accessible price. This high-cost-performance model, completed under the supervision of bassist Tak Saito, who is deeply involved with the workshop, and Yoshiyuki Kikuchi, one of Japan's leading luthiers, has been renewed with a refreshed headstock and position markers. The headstock shape adopts the design of \"Kikuchi Guitars,\" further evolving as a sister brand. Furthermore, it features an ash body, a first for a passive model. The combination with a rosewood fingerboard produces a clear, dry tone with a sound that envelops the bass.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e While inheriting the traditional JB style, this model incorporates the skills and sensibilities cultivated by Mr. Kikuchi, resulting in a model that is \"cost-effective yet usable in professional settings.\" The body embodies the \"just right\" feel, being slightly larger than a full-size dinky shape, while the grip and fingerboard radius are standard, but the string height is set at a low angle to accommodate modern playing styles. The parts are chosen to maintain tightness while considering weight and sustain, resulting in specifications that inherit the traditional style while also being easy to use in modern times. These were selected and produced after thorough comparisons with a vintage JB owned by Tak Saito, with the theme of \"a sound that is on par with vintage in live settings.\" The most significant feature is the pickup, which was specially made for this model. It is a meticulously crafted part that was completed after dozens of prototypes and tests by Tak Saito and Mr. Kikuchi. While faithfully reproducing the sound of the instrument itself, it achieves a clear attack, a robust presence that doesn't get lost in the ensemble, and low noise, making a big impact even with its simple specifications. The high-quality setup also boasts overwhelmingly stress-free playability and excellent intonation, needless to say.\u003cbr\u003e Rather than gimmicky or unique specifications, the brand's strong commitment is evident in its starting point: a simple passive-style JB. With a thick sound that sets it apart from typical vintage reissues, this brand\/model has already established a significant presence as a practical model for players.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Please experience the world-class quality of our domestically produced models.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The origin of the three dots in Three Dots: playability = excellent playability, reliability = reliability, affordability = reasonable price.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e *Warranty card is not included.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody Wood: Ash 2-Piece\u003cbr\u003e Body Shape: Full original custom JB\u003cbr\u003e Neck Wood: Maple\u003cbr\u003e Scale: 864mm\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard Radius: 305R\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e Nut Material: TUSQ\u003cbr\u003e Nut Width: 38mm\u003cbr\u003e Frets: DHP24H\u003cbr\u003e Bridge: Vintage Style 20mm\u003cbr\u003e Tuning Machines : Hipshot License Ultra-Light\u003cbr\u003e Bridge Pickup: Original J\u003cbr\u003e Neck Pickup: Original J\u003cbr\u003e Control: Volume (Neck), Volume (Bridge), Tone\u003cbr\u003e Finish: Polyester\u003cbr\u003e Color: TBW (Trans White)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Gig bag included\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Three Dots Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43155592085617,"sku":"855946","price":1276.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/JB__Ash_TWH_R___Special_Price__01.jpg?v=1776566439","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/es\/products\/855946","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
