Description & Condition
Description & Condition
Kikuchi Guitars is a new high-end brand created by Yoshiyuki Kikuchi (and Okada International), who has earned immense trust from many professional bassists, particularly for his work with Sadowsky.
This model is based on the acclaimed JB style, refining his previous work and creating a more modern bass.
Serial number #4.
This is an extremely early piece.
As all models are custom, there are no fixed woods, but the body weight is given particular importance, and in some cases, it is finished with a chambered body.
This particular instrument has a chambered alder body.
It is finished in a color called Bracing Green.
The neck is maple, and the fingerboard is Indian rosewood.
The precision of the neck area, which has always been highly praised, is superb, and this instrument fully demonstrates that quality.
The tuning machines and bridge are HIPSHOT.
The pickups are split-coil type, manufactured by DiMarzio.
This is similar to the Sadowsky Metroline models from the era when they were made in Japan.
Its distinctive features are its low noise and trebly tone.
The preamp is a custom type specially designed by EMG for this model.
It has a simple specification, boosting only the bass and treble.
The peak of the midrange dip when boosted is exquisite, making the sound seem to tighten up in a stylish way.
Yet, it doesn't lose its bass character, and retains its beautiful harmonic richness.
It eloquently demonstrates the meaning of boosting with a 2-band EQ.
It features an extremely fast and responsive playing feel.
Yet, it has ample bass response, resulting in a harmonically rich and trebly sound.
This is a supreme instrument that could only be realized by Mr. Kikuchi making basses in the modern era.
The frets have approximately 90% remaining.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck is in good condition.
The body and paintwork show some minor scratches, but are generally clean.
The electronics are in good condition.
No obvious modifications were observed.
