Description
A high-cost, high-performance model that closely resembles the original specifications!

F Chopper KOGA is the bassist of Gacharic Spin, a band that started its activities in 2009 and has gained popularity for its hyper-energy stage performances. The instrument that has accompanied her on many stages as her beloved instrument is made by Vellmor Guitar, based in Nagano. This workshop is a brand founded by the craftsman who has been making her instruments since her indie days, so the quality of the workmanship speaks for itself. This particular instrument is her signature model, and with the desire to make it available to more players, it retains the basic specifications of her own model while closely resembling it and offering excellent cost performance.

Featuring an alder body and maple fingerboard, this guitar is equipped with original pickups and a preamp. The rich sound, which makes the most of the midrange and low frequencies of the alder wood, is further enhanced by the preamp's characteristic of directly boosting the tone, resulting in a powerful sound. In addition to a 3-band EQ, it can also be used in passive mode, allowing for more active sound shaping, and can be used in a variety of ways depending on the song and situation, accommodating diverse playing styles.

This guitar features a slightly slimmer neck shape, a detail the artist insisted on, and an LED built into the fretboard top for enhanced visibility and a striking stage presence. It also boasts a finger ramp for easier playing and fingerwork, resulting in a truly professional finish. With its fast attack that delivers clear output even in quick passages, and a tight resonance thanks to its deep joint and six-bolt construction, this guitar offers a sound and specs that seem impossible to achieve at this price point, and is sure to impress. It excels not only in aggressive slap bass sounds, just like the artist himself, but also in punchy fingerstyle playing.

There are minor scratches, light dents, and a crack in the wood at the neck end, but it is fully playable. The LED lights up without any problems at the moment, but any malfunctions will not be covered under warranty.
The truss rod is slightly stiff when tightening, but there is still plenty of room within the normal adjustment range, and the neck condition is good with no major issues.

Weight ≈ 4.29 kg
Accessories: General-purpose gig bag, finger ramp
