This particular model is the M#245, the company's flagship model widely known as a high-quality, domestically produced active JB bass. Furthermore, it boasts a backbone based on the intentions of Tomohito Aoki, and is highly regarded as a model favored by musicians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e While based on the 70s Fender JB, this bass incorporates a body shape with an original design that takes into consideration the prevention of the instrument tipping over, the installation of the unique low-action setting \"Z Tuning System\" that provides a pleasant buzz, the powerful active sound of the Bartolini XTCT (which also has a mid-cut control in the cavity), the brand's signature heavy-duty original bridge, and a thick clear pickguard and pickup fence that allows for smooth control of thumbing and pulling when slapping, which is a specialty of this brand. The specifications and design are packed with attention to detail from a bassist's perspective. Furthermore, this instrument is made with the latest specifications, including an added master tone design, which allows for fine nuances even when using passive mode.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This bass boasts a dynamic and powerful bass thanks to its ash body, a pleasantly tight sound image, and a fast attack response thanks to its coated one-piece maple neck. You can enjoy the dynamic and clear sound of a 70's JB bass with a supple touch, making it truly a player's gear. Furthermore, the rich vibration produced by the full-size body and the pleasant, rustic tone resulting from the open resonance of the traditional neck construction without graphite support are also key features and appealing aspects of this model.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This particular instrument is a custom-ordered model offered by our store. While it may appear to have a simple matte natural finish, it was ordered with an open-pore finish that doesn't block the ash wood grain. The result is a guitar that highlights the texture of the wood, accented with gold hardware. Furthermore, this model has been modified from the conventional [2 Volume] configuration to a more smoothly controllable [Master Volume, Balancer] configuration, and the controls have changed accordingly to \"Master Volume\/Master Tone (Stack), Balancer, Treble, Bass (Pull\/Passive)\". Its distinctive sound is instantly recognizable, and the meticulous quality control that comes with our workshop's basses is one of the reasons why so many bassists are captivated by them. Take this opportunity to get your hands on this authentic model that will make a statement on stage and in the recording studio.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e *Includes gig case\u003cbr\u003e ■Weight: ≈4.39kg\u003cbr\u003e ■S\/N: #042074\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[Specifications]\u003cbr\u003e [Neck]\u003cbr\u003e ■Scale: 34 inches (864 mm)\u003cbr\u003e Neck Material: Maple 1Pc.\u003cbr\u003e ■Fingerboard Material: Maple\u003cbr\u003e ■Fingerboard Radius: 240R\u003cbr\u003e Fret Size: W2.9mm\/H1.2mm\u003cbr\u003e ■Frets: 20 Frets\u003cbr\u003e ■Nut Material: Bone\u003cbr\u003e ■Nut Width: 38.5mm\u003cbr\u003e ■Finish: All Mat\u003cbr\u003e [Body]\u003cbr\u003e Body Material: Ash 2Pc.\u003cbr\u003e ■Body Shape: JB M Type (Original J Body)\u003cbr\u003e Body Finish: Mat\u003cbr\u003e [Hardware]\u003cbr\u003e Tuning key: GOTOH GB-528\u003cbr\u003e Bridge: ATELIER Z BB419\u003cbr\u003e ■Finish: Gold\u003cbr\u003e ■Pickguard: Acrylic Clear 3mm\u003cbr\u003e ■Control panel: Acrylic Clear 3mm\u003cbr\u003e ■Pickup Fence: ATELIER Z ZPF-4500 GO\u003cbr\u003e ■Control Knobs: ATELIER Z ZAK-1500\u003cbr\u003e ■Neck Plate: ATELIER Z 4 Point Plate\u003cbr\u003e ■Strings: ATELIER Z Stainless Steel Strings SPS-3300 (.45 .65 .85 .105)\u003cbr\u003e [Electronics]\u003cbr\u003e ■Pickups: ATELIER Z JBZ-4\u003cbr\u003e ■Preamp: Bartolini XTCT+Spectrum Boost\u003cbr\u003e ■Controls: M'Vol., M.Tone, Balancer, Treble Boost, Bass Boost\/sw (Active ON\/OFF)\u003cbr\u003e ※Middle cut included\u003cbr\u003e [Color]\u003cbr\u003e ■N OPEN PORE (Natural Open Pore)","brand":"ATELIER Z","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43558966886513,"sku":"861807","price":2566.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/861807_01.jpg?v=1782556945","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/products\/861807","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
