dragonfly is a Japanese guitar and bass brand with a long history.
They manufacture high-quality products using the knowledge and technology they've cultivated together with musicians.
This model is the CJ-5, which features a double-cut body design.
A similar model is the CS-5, but the CJ series aims for a simpler construction.
The d-fly is a model that offers better cost performance.
The body is made of light ash and the fingerboard is made of maple.
One of the attractions of dragonfly is its use of flashy exotic woods for the body top, but this model has a simpler look.
The sound also has a more classic impression.
An attractive feature of the original preamp is that it doesn't become unnaturally boomy even when boosted.
The slightly higher bass range of 60Hz will likely suit modern bassists.
Controls include volume, balance, passive tone, bass, middle, and treble, with two mini switches for active/passive switching and middle frequency switching.
The massive yet clear, speedy sound is a unique feature of the Dragonfly.
These features are sure to appeal to musicians.
A pickguard is included, but the body does not have pilot holes, so modifications are required to install it.
GIB can also perform this modification, so please feel free to ask.
Approximately 85% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck is in good condition.
The body and paint have some minor scratches, but are generally clean.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No obvious modifications were found.
