Atlansia is a famous workshop that has been supporting Japanese guitar making for a long time.
Its unique design is highly regarded both in Japan and overseas, and it is respected by many luthiers and musicians.
This model is a Garland Bass manufactured in 1982.
It has a traditional shape that is highly popular among the brand.
From the appearance, the body appears to be alder and the fingerboard is rosewood.
The pickup is not an ARC but a humbucker type.
It is because of the excellent finish of the fingerboard edge and the neck shape that this individuality is utilized as excellent playability.
The sound is fat and the center of gravity is low.
It is a very unique model, but it is a bass that feels convincing when you actually play it.
As an aside, there are repair notes from the builder at key points.
This is a point that enthusiasts will like.
About 70% of the frets remain.
