Description
Description
It's been about three years since we ordered it, and now our custom-ordered F-Bass BN5 Green Fade has arrived! It features a cool design with black parts.
F-bass, a handmade bass brand led by a small but elite team of leading Canadian luthier George Furlanetto, produces high-quality 5-string basses with a feel similar to a jazz bass, while still maintaining a unique, original style.Their instruments are now hugely popular with top players around the world, regardless of genre.
This model features a solid ash body weighing in at 4.63 kg, typical of a 5-string bass, a 3-piece quartersawn maple neck, an original pickup and preamp, and an appealing natural tone with a wide range thanks to the high-quality wood produced by the exquisite tension balance of the 34.5-inch scale, a sticky midrange, and good attack.
This is an extremely excellent instrument that achieves a good balance of a moderately compressed, open, punchy sound without compromising the tight low B sound, and a traditional sound that pays respect to F. It is no exaggeration to say that this model could always be the main bass for bassists of all styles.
The model we ordered in our shop has Master Vol + Balancer controls instead of 2 Vol, making it easy to use on the job for both band members and studio musicians.
In recent years, the number of these items arriving in Japan has been extremely limited, and many people have not had the chance to actually touch one. Don't miss this opportunity!
*The balancer's drive direction is the same as Sadowsky, with clockwise rotation for the rear and counterclockwise rotation for the front.
