【new】HEX Guitars / ZB400 S/SV

HEX Guitars is a brand based in South Korea that specializes in products spanning the entry-level to mid-range price points.

They own their own factory in Indonesia and handle manufacturing themselves. This sets them apart from brands that typically rely on OEM production.

Because they don't outsource to other factories and the boss himself gets hands-on at the factory, they produce guitars with a level of quality unimaginable for their price point.

The ZB400 is a bass featuring modern elements like a multi-scale fretboard and a headless design.

The pickup configuration features a single-coil at the neck and a dual-coil at the bridge.

The bridge pickup's wiring can be switched between series, split, and parallel modes.

They employ original pickups in many of their models.

This isn't for cost-cutting; it stems from their confidence in the quality of their own pickup designs.

Staff who understand music and play daily meticulously research and design every element—magnets, wire, bobbins, and more.

This is paired with a modern preamp featuring a 3-band EQ.

The EQ's frequency bands are practical: BASS 50Hz, MIDDLE 1kHz, Treble 6kHz.

The balance in your hands is excellent. Even someone accustomed to playing a Fender should find the HEX comfortable to play.

It delivers a clean, headless-style sound without sacrificing musical harmonics or rich bass response.

The fundamental quality around the neck is exceptionally high, resulting in superb playability. It's difficult to say it falls short even when compared to instruments priced around ¥200,000.

Overall, it's an outstanding product with high quality in looks, playability, and sound.

While its headless design might deter some, we strongly encourage you to try playing it.

You'll likely be surprised by its high quality.

All HEX Guitars products sold by GIB are inspected, modified, and adjusted after importation into Japan by GIB before sale.

We guarantee reliable quality, so please give it a try.
