Tsubasa Guitar Workshop is a brand created by Chiaki Tanaka, who is known for producing Fullertone basses.
His previous work has earned him a reputation for creating basses with a vintage-style motif.
This is The Hopper, the brand's signature model.
As you can see, it's based on the Jazz Bass.
The body is made of alder and the fingerboard is made of rosewood, a classic construction.
The intense relic finish is one of its charms.
All hardware is GOTOH.
The pickups are original and designed for a solid sound.
While it has a somewhat refined impression, the open playing feel and sound are almost vintage.
This is a masterpiece that you should definitely try out.
Approximately 90% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck is in a state of high-rise. The string height is currently adjusted to 2.0mm-2.8mm, and there is some buzzing depending on how you play.
The body and paint are relic-style models, so any peeling paint or dents have been intentionally recreated. These are difficult to distinguish from scratches that have recently developed through use.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No obvious modifications were found.
