dragonfly is a Japanese guitar and bass brand with a long history.
Using knowledge and technology cultivated with musicians, the company manufactures 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, but this model is the SHB 5 with a single-cut body design.

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

It looks almost the same, but it is the perfect bridge to match the dragonfly concept.

The body back is made of alder and the top is made of burl poplar, giving it an exotic look.
The fingerboard is Perferro.

The frets are stainless steel frets designed in-house.
In fact, dragonfly was a pioneer in starting to introduce stainless steel frets on their basses in earnest.

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

The sound has a traditional nuance and performs the bass role required in an ensemble with sincerity.
The sound is characterised by straightforward responsiveness and can be used in all genres.

Very little fret wear.
The truss rod operation and neck are in good condition.
The condition of the body and paintwork is clean with a few small dents dotted around.
No obvious modification points were found.

Stringjoy is imported and sold by us at the time of set-up.
