high-end brand that received a lot of attention when it was newly used by Jamiroquai bassist Paul Turner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe brand was started in the 1990s by professional bassist Ales Vychodil.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt that time, major instrument manufacturers offered many basses on the market, but none of them met his needs.\u003cbr\u003eIn order to meet his own needs, he began making custom basses with his own hands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the 2000s, we started OEM manufacturing for European and American boutique brands, and made the world aware of our high level of manufacturing technology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI met the builder Ales at the Guitar Summit in Germany in 2019.\u003cbr\u003eHe has a great personality and is a man who has a strong desire to take on challenges, but who also always shows concern for the performers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI have placed orders several times since 2019, and they have provided stable quality.\u003cbr\u003eI believe that this stability not only shows the strength of a brand, but also is universally important.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis model was exhibited at the European Guitar Show held in 2024 and attracted attention.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI selected two special bottles from among several on display and took them back to Japan.\u003cbr\u003eHere is one of them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis model uses the JB style as a motif and actively incorporates more modern specifications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe top of the body is Exotic Africna Ebony and the back is European Poplar.\u003cbr\u003eThe builder, Ales, is pushing this top material a lot, and it seems that it is truly rare.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot only does it look cool, but the combination with European Poplar is the best, and he loves it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe neck is one piece Maple and the fingerboard is African Ebony.\u003cbr\u003eThe fingerboard is coated and beautifully finished.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bridge and tuning machine are HIPSHOT.\u003cbr\u003eThe scale is 34 inches and the string pitch is 18 mm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe PU is Nordstrand Bis Single on the neck side and Nordstrand Bigman on the bridge side.\u003cbr\u003eAs for the preamplifier, I didn't specify it on my side and had it set to a passive circuit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eControls are also specified: neck PU volume, bridge PU (neck coil) volume, bridge PU (bridge coil) volume, and passive tone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach coil of the humbucking PU is treated as a single coil.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis method is recommended for Musicman Stingray's passive MOD, and is very popular due to its wide range of sound variations and high practicality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe playing feel is extremely smooth, the clarity of the pronunciation, and the quick but not sarcastic response are extremely attractive.\u003cbr\u003eI liked the feel of it and immediately decided to bring it back to Japan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe string vibrations created in this way are output using high quality PU.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe neck PU is thick but clear.\u003cbr\u003eEven with the bridge PU, there is no lack of bass, and the tight and crisp high mids are attractive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe two coils have different characters, and I think it's very useful to be able to freely control this balance in conjunction with the neck PU.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a miraculous piece that not only fretless fans but all bassists should try.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease note that there are some scratches as this is a show model.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAccessories: gig bag, wrench, spec sheet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eText: Shunsuke Saga\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspection person:
