Among the brand's extensive lineup of basses, characterized by a clear sound orientation and a variety of specifications to meet the needs of players, this particular model is the \"Beta,\" which features a 24-fret design and a deep cutaway on the treble side for excellent playability in the higher positions. It is equipped with an ash body, a celluloid-wrapped maple neck, and an original bridge. While retaining the tight and powerful bass tones that are characteristic of the brand's flagship model \"M (Magnitude),\" this model also features a sharp body shape, adding a crisp and well-defined nuance to its sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e One of the great things about ATELIER Z basses is that they deliver a solid, resonant acoustic sound even with a low string action. Not only is the sound crisp when slapping, but you also get a well-defined bottom end when fingerpicking or using a pick. The thick pickguard and the exquisite Z-tuning system create a tight string spacing, allowing for supple responsiveness to fretting and picking nuances, contributing to stable playing and highlighting its excellence as a tool to support the player's expression. You can fully enjoy the slap sound that has become synonymous with this brand. Furthermore, even when boosting the sound on the bass itself during slapping, there's no loss of clarity or fragmentation of the sound image; instead, it significantly enhances the bass's presence. In addition to the brand's signature crisp sound, the 24-fret design offers nimble playability and ease of handling technical phrases, which are key to this model's popularity. It's also recommended for those who want to play various genres with a single bass.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Beta series, which had been in the lineup for a long time, underwent a renewal in March 2025, and along with that, the models and specifications were also refreshed. The string spacing is now 19mm as standard, and the pickups are the company's original \"JZ-5\" pickups, which employ a slant pole piece\/split coil structure, achieving a noiseless and powerful sound. Furthermore, it is equipped with the newly developed \"AZ-3B\" active preamp. Each of the 3 bands can be boosted\/cut, covering a wide range of sounds. In addition, a heel cut at the joint and a removable finger ramp have been included, actively incorporating features for technically-oriented players. Be sure to get your hands on one of the two flagship models, which has been further enhanced in every aspect and has become even more powerful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e【Specifications】\u003cbr\u003e Scale: 34 inches\u003cbr\u003e Neck: Maple\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard: Maple 24F\u003cbr\u003e Body: Ash2P\u003cbr\u003e Tuning key: GOTOH GB-528\u003cbr\u003e Bridge: ATELIER Z BB519\u003cbr\u003e Pickups: ATELIER Z JZ-5\u003cbr\u003e Preamp: ATELIER Z AZ-3B (Treble: ±18dB\/7KHz, Middle: ±7dB\/400Hz, Bass: ±8dB\/70Hz, Gain: with trimmer)\u003cbr\u003e Controls: M'Vol., Balancer, M'Tone\/sw, MID, Treble\/Bass\u003cbr\u003e Weight: ≈4.19kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Gig bag included","brand":"ATELIER Z","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43556541890673,"sku":"861792","price":2618.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/861792_01.jpg?v=1782542597","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/products\/861792","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
