D'mark Guitars is a Brazilian guitar brand that has been around since 1998.
The brand is highly regarded in South America, and in recent years, it has become well known in Europe and the United States as well.
This model is the Alpha 6 of the MASTER SERIES, specially built for Japan on order from GIB. (Therefore, the back of the head is engraved with the words "Custom Built For Japan Only.)
) The beautiful bass is made of a combination of fine woods from Brazil, a country with abundant forest resources.
The body top has a beautiful EXOTIC MAPPA BURL.
As you can see, it is super S grade.
The back and core are of a complex configuration, but are made primarily of Brazilian mahogany and Brazilian cedar.
The neck is a 3-piece of maple and a wood called Muiracatiala.
Muiracatuara is an unfamiliar wood, but it originates from Central and South America and is extremely hard.
For this reason, it is useful not only for furniture and flooring, but also as a material for knives and guns.
Maple is used for the fingerboard.
Pickups and preamp are original.
It has a 3-band EQ, and the controls are volume, balancer, treble, middle, bass, preamp bypass sw, and middle freq. switching sw.
It is characterized by smooth playability and has a special quality of playability including such points.
The sound is beautiful and eloquent, resonating quietly and far away like a through-neck.
There are nuances that connect seamlessly from the low B string to the high C string, allowing the player's musical sensibilities to be fully expressed.
The sound is relatively solid and sharp.
You can also hear a JB-like quality to it.
Although South American instruments are of high quality and unique, many of them are too unique, and many brands have been difficult to find in electric basses, which are mainly North American in style.
However, this brand, which has been gaining recognition in recent years, mixes North American styles to create a more familiar finish.
Although the thru-neck style has become more popular, this is an excellent product that may cause you to take a new look at the style again.
We think you will be surprised in a good way, and we hope you will give it a try.
