[new] dragonfly / SHB5/345 CUSTOM KUROKAKI/ASH #22082SE 4.2kg [yokohama store]

dragonfly is a Japanese guitar and bass brand with a long history.
Using the knowledge and technology cultivated with musicians, the company produces high quality products.

Many musicians use the brand's basses, including Tejan Tetsuya of Fear.and Loathing in Las Vegas, who has been using the brand's basses for many years.

There are several models of dragonfly, and this model is the CS 5 with a double-cut body design.

Light ash is used for the body back and black persimmon for the top.
Since this kurokaki has some weak points in terms of strength, panels have been added for the controls.

The bridge is made by GOTOH, specially ordered, all machined from brass, and weighs 270g.
The normal is made of die-cast zinc and steel and weighs 198g.

The fingerboard is Perferro, and the frets are stainless steel frets designed in-house.
In fact, dragonfly is a pioneer who started to introduce stainless steel frets to their basses in earnest.

The original preamp is attractive in that there is no weird boomy sound even when boosted.
The BASS bandwidth is a little higher at 60Hz, which seems to match modern bassists.

Although it looks almost the same, it is a perfect bridge that matches the dragonfly concept.

Controls are volume, balancer, passive tone (push/pull active/passive), EQ (Treble, Middle, Bass), hum/single switch for each PU, and middle frequency switch.

The sound is characterized by the abundance of organic overtones on top of a sufficiently secured low frequency range.
It has such a neat balance that the sound is not too thin even when the rear is used alone, and it can form an ensemble as a bass even if the sound is made a little extreme.

Comes with a manufacturer's warranty.
