Moon is a long-established guitar brand representing Japan.
Highly regarded by many professional artists, Mitsuru Sudo and Larry Graham are known to be fans of the brand. (Titles omitted)
This model is the signature model of Mitsuru Sudo, one of Japan's most talented bassists.
While Sudo is known for his JJ layout, this bass is a newly crafted PJ-style bass.
The body features an alder body and a Honduras rosewood fingerboard, a classic wood construction.
It is finished in a cool color called Ocean Turquoise.
While the JB-5 was finished in ebony, this model's rosewood fingerboard offers a more traditional feel.
The thin, flat neck has excellent texture and an appealingly smooth playing feel.
The pickups are U.S.A. Kuwabara PJ-5.
The controls are a bit unusual, with one volume, one balancer, and a master tone.
This was chosen by the bassist himself, allowing him to quickly change the tone when performing support duties.
It has a practical, well-thought-out design, typical of a professional bassist.
The bridge is a simple GOTOH 205B-5.
It has excellent playability and a natural resonance, producing a bright, open sound.
It has an appealing nuance that is tight yet not too dark.
It is a masterpiece with universal appeal as a bass.
Approximately 80% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck is in good condition.
The body and paint have some small scratches, but are generally clean. There is a crack-like pattern near the tip of the headstock, but this is wood grain.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No obvious modifications were found.
