dragonfly is a Japanese guitar and bass brand with a long history.
Using the knowledge and technology cultivated with musicians, the company produces high quality products.
Many musicians use the brand's basses, including Tejan Tetsuya of Fear.and Loathing in Las Vegas, who has been using the brand's basses for many years.
There are several models of dragonfly, but this model is the newly started classic JB style CL-DJB5.
You can choose between the original preamp and one made by Darkglass, but in this case it is the original type.
The impression is that it converts impedance while maintaining a natural and honest sound.
The original preamp has a very natural character and seems to embody passive + a.
It will be liked by those who prefer Xotic or similar preamps.
If you prefer a more intense and extreme character, we recommend the Darkglass preamp.
Controls are volume, balancer, treble, middle, bass, and preamp on/off SW.
Ash for the body and Perferro for the fingerboard.
It is a traditional configuration.
The sound surface is also good, sharp, powerful, and clear.
It is one of the ideal JB sound in today's world.
As is typical of dragonfly, it is smooth and comfortable to play.
The quality of this series is simply high, and those who are looking for a 5-string JB should give this series a try.
