Saitias Guitars is a bass guitar brand based in Chigasaki.
They've collaborated with many professional artists, including RADWIMPS and Wakazaemon, demonstrating their high level of reliability. (Titles omitted)
This is a Lexell 5, a model known to be Wakazaemon's favorite.
This particular guitar is a Limited Edition created for Sound Messe in Osaka, held in May 2025.
The body is alder and the fingerboard is rosewood, giving it a classic style.
The body is slightly thinner than the standard Lexell 5, at 38mm.
Not only is it lighter, but it also has a more open sound.
The pickups are original models manufactured by Kariya Pickups, and the preamp is made by Humpback.
The bridge and tuning machines are made by HIPSHOT.
You've chosen excellent brands from both Japan and the US.
As you can see from the pickup placement, the guitar is basically aiming for a JB-like sound.
However, because it has a single-cut body, neck vibration is more suppressed and controlled, giving it a tighter sound.
The beautiful finish on the details such as the neck, frets, and nut is another major point, ensuring high playability.
The position markers are specially made of white mother-of-pearl with brass rings.
It's a small thing, but it gives it an even more elegant look.
Also worth mentioning is the paint job.
Saitias has truly high-level painting techniques, and I feel that the vividness of the coloring and the beautiful finish are top-class.
It's a masterpiece with a neat design that strongly embodies the manufacturer's concept.
I would love for many people to try it out.
It will be adjusted for ease of play by GIB craftsmen before delivery.
