{"product_id":"190732879","title":"【new】JIENIE BASSES \/ Essential MJ-5 Transparent Blue 3.955kg【GIB Hyogo】","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eJIENIE BASSES is a custom bass brand that launched in 2023.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Custom Shop Series maintains its unique style while offering extensive customization options for scale length, neck shape, headstock size, and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the other hand, the newly launched Essential Series features specifications determined by the brand's own optimal balance, resulting in a streamlined design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis MJ-5 model has been conceived for over 10 years, even before the brand was established.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts motif is the 5-string JB.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile incorporating the style of a 5-string bass, its sound remains JB-like, while adding high playability and convenience for modern musicians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe body is made of ash, and the neck and fretboard are made of maple, a classic construction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe neck is thin and slender, minimizing its mass as much as possible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis aims for a sound texture closer to that of a 4-string bass.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe neck is reinforced with carbon fiber only near the joint with the body.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe joint significantly reduces strength, so reinforcement is implemented to prevent distortion starting from that point.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReinforcing the entire body would drastically alter the sound, so the modifications are kept to a minimum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe headstock uses a stepped design similar to a JB, but with minimal angle adjustments and headstock thickness settings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis eliminates parts like tension pins, ensuring the strings make contact with the nut at a minimal angle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis design removes unnecessary elements, allowing the strings to vibrate more freely and with richer harmonics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe body shape is designed with smooth, three-dimensional curves, resulting in a comfortable fit against the body and a refined look.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile there is no pickguard, the spacing between the body top and strings is set to be almost the same as that of a typical JB.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall, you should feel a very JB-like comfort and playing experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bridge and tuning machines are HIPSHOT.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese are very lightweight, high-quality hardware components with no unnecessary features.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe pickups are custom-ordered single-coil type from Delano.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe avoided unnecessarily increasing the winding count, instead focusing on a trebly sound similar to a 4-string bass.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe preamp was designed in-house and manufactured by KarDiaN.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigned with the assumption of using a passive tone control, it features a 2-band EQ with only boosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe BASS BOOST provides a rich feel in the 40-70Hz range, while the TREBLE BOOST provides a more pronounced 4-10kHz range. By sufficiently boosting these, the frequencies around 500Hz are relatively reduced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe passive tone control plays a crucial role here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy using the passive tone control to suppress the high frequencies before the pickup passes through the active circuit, a strong high-mid range characteristic of passive systems is achieved. This is solely for enhancing the high-mid range; any excess or deficiency in the high frequencies is corrected by the EQ.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe MJ-5's sound was perfected by utilizing pickups, preamps, and passive tone controls designed with a clear concept in mind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt embodies the thickness and attack of a passive JB, the strong low and high frequencies characteristic of a JB, and a trebly texture reminiscent of a 4-string bass, despite being a 5-string. The JIENIE MJ-5 embodies these characteristics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e◯SPECS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody: Ash\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard: Maple\u003cbr\u003eNeck: Maple 1P\u003cbr\u003eScale: 34 inch\u003cbr\u003eNut width: 46mm\u003cbr\u003eNut: Bone\u003cbr\u003eFret: 21F (214)\u003cbr\u003eBridge: HIPSHOT Style B Alumi 18mm P\u003cbr\u003eTuning machine: HIPSHOT Ultralite 1\/2\u003cbr\u003ePickups: Delano JIENIE custom single coil\u003cbr\u003ePreamp: JIENIE 2 Band EQ boost\u003cbr\u003eControl: Neck PU Volume, Bridge PU Volume, Passive Tone (Push\/Pull - Preamp on\/off), Treble Boost, Bass Boost\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guitar will be delivered after being adjusted for easy playability by GIB's craftsmen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAccessories: ROSIE Ultralight Bass Guitar Case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eText: Shunsuke Saga\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspector: Terao\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduct Photos: Muragishi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(Warranty is only valid for purchases made within Japan)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e●Price includes VAT \u0026amp; Duties \u0026amp; Shipping Fee\u003cbr\u003eFree Shipping Worldwide.
