Crews Maniac Sound is known as the original brand of the famous Hootsys store.
The excellent design is supported by professionals and has an established reputation.
This is a fretless bass, Jackson.
It is one of the most famous fretless basses in the history of Japanese fretless basses.
The body back is ash and the top is quilted maple.
As you can see, it is finished in beautiful colors.
The fingerboard is coated with pitch-black ebony.
This ebony is really pitch black, and it is almost impossible to use something like this nowadays.
Guitar brands are always looking around for it, but it is still hard to find.
I think they really don't have any.
Only one PU is used on the bridge side, an EMG 40DC.
The preamp is a BTS, also by EMG.
When played on the extended fretboard, the tone has a slow attack and sings, and when played closer to the rear, it has an attacky, fast-rising tone.
The design is full of fun for bassists, who can change the sound with just a touch of the right and left hands.
The truss rod is a little stiff, but we have confirmed that it works about 90°.
The neck is in good condition. Scattered darkening and scratching. The grips have been played and are shiny. The fingerboard is generally cloudy.
