Description

Active JB's flagship model! Recommended for all genres!

The M (Magunitude) #245 was originally released as a signature model for Tomohito Aoki, but is now used by countless musicians, both professional and amateur, and is a standard model and representative of Atelier Z.
Based on the 70s JB tone, it has clear highs and thick lows, and the sound that comes from the densely grained ash body lets you experience the classic bass-heavy sound.It only has a two-band treble/bass boost, but opening the back panel reveals a mid-cut trim, so you can adjust it to your preferred setting.
Attention to detail has been paid to the neck insertion angle, making it easy to produce sound even with a light touch.It not only produces the bold sound of his signature slapping, but also a thick tone when playing with your fingers and the attack of playing with a pick, making it suitable for a variety of playing styles, making it a guitar that can be used regardless of genre.
This model also features the Spectrum Boost that Aoki was looking for, giving it a significantly more powerful feel than previous models, and in addition to its signature bold slapping sound, it is also suitable for a wide range of genres, offering new sound possibilities. The natural color is popular with people of all ages, so don't miss out!

The specifications have been changed from the previous [2Volume] to [Master Volume, Balancer], which allows for smoother control, and the controls are now "Master Volume/Master Tone (Stack), Balancer, Treble, Bass (Pull/Passive)".
