Momose is based in Matsumoto, Nagano and produces high quality basses and guitars.
It has a reputation for its beautiful looks and excellent sound.
It is also popular among professionals, and is known to be used by top musicians such as Kazuki Isogai and Kyohei Ariga. (Title omitted)
This is a special piece produced as a show model.
MJ is a series that incorporates unique designs into the details based on the traditional JB style.
Furthermore, EWC (Exotic Wood Custom) is a model that uses rare and luxurious wood owned by Divisor.
What I would like to highlight is the beautiful Chestnut Burl on the top of the body.
Finished in Cherry Sunburst color for an elegant finish.
The body back is 1 piece of Ash without pasting.
These days, it's really expensive, so it's quite a luxurious specification.
The neck is made of beautiful Maple, and the fingerboard is made of rare one-tone Ebony.
The high quality of these items may be unique to the show model.
The paint is Top Lacquer finish.
The color of the paint will change greatly as the top clear layer changes color.
This balance of making the base with a strong paint such as urethane and finishing the top with lacquer, which affects the look, is really rational.
The PU is an original model, and the preamp uses Aguilar OBP-2.
The sound, which includes a full swinging low range and an attacking high range that hits the air, has universal appeal in ensembles.
This is a must-try item not only for bassists who are active in the field, but also for bassists who want to get their own special one.
