(Great name, isn't it?).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt has a double-cut body with a long horn on the bass string side and an overall undulating design.\u003cbr\u003eIt is a little different from the Fender type nuance, and I feel that the beautiful looks are waiting to be coupled with the Buckeye burl on the top of the body.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the most distinctive aspects is the head shape and the placement of the tuning keys.\u003cbr\u003eOne tuning key for the low B string is placed on the left side of the street from the nut, and all others are on the right. I sense an intention.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy thought is that the low B string especially needs to be thoughtfully angled from the nut, and the tension pin puts it under control.\u003cbr\u003eI don't think it is something like the farther the tuning key is from the nut, the more tension is involved.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI don't know the truth, so I'll ask the maker next time I'm in Germany. (I talk about those things sometimes, so please watch Youtube ......!)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe body back is mahogany, the neck is walnut, and the fingerboard is ebony.\u003cbr\u003eThe body back is mahogany, neck is walnut, and fingerboard is ebony.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePU is Nordstrand, preamp is Glockenklang.\u003cbr\u003eThe founder is from France and Switzerland, but here are American and German parts. The multinational feel is nice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe scale is 34 inches.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSound-wise, it has a very clean but well-balanced sound that does not lose its deliciousness as a bass.\u003cbr\u003eI feel the reason why the tool used for the bass position continues to be in the shape of a guitar (and why that shape is so popular).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt has a certain quality, and when you actually play it, you will be convinced of its sound and the texture of playing it.\u003cbr\u003eFirst of all, please try to play it. It is an interesting instrument.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe remaining frets are approximately 80%.\u003cbr\u003eThe truss rod is a little stiff, but we have confirmed that it works at least 90 degrees.\u003cbr\u003eThe neck is in good condition.\u003cbr\u003eThe body and paintwork are in good condition, with a few 3mm dents on the sides of the body and near the back panel. Overall, the instrument is relatively clean and beautiful.\u003cbr\u003eThe electrical system is in good condition.\u003cbr\u003eNo obvious modifications were found.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eControls : Master volume - push\/pull (active\/passive), balancer, bass, middle, treble (passive tone)\u003cbr\u003eNut width : 46.0mm\u003cbr\u003ePitch between strings at bridge : 18.0mm\u003cbr\u003eScale : 34inch\u003cbr\u003eYear of manufacture : unknown\u003cbr\u003eCountry of manufacture : GERMANY\u003cbr\u003eAccessories : Gig bag, certificate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe D'addario EXL, trusted by professional musicians, is used in the setup.\u003cbr\u003eCharacterized by a powerful attack and rich overtones, this performance is truly worthy of being called a standard.\u003cbr\u003ePlease enjoy these high-quality strings that bring out the performance and character of the instrument to the fullest, so please enjoy them as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGIB craftsmen will adjust them to make them easy to play and deliver them to you.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eserial number: #15522\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 4.620kg\u003cbr\u003eFret: 80% remaining\u003cbr\u003eTruss rod: tight a little, but can work roughly 90° at least\u003cbr\u003eneck condition: Good.\u003cbr\u003eControl: Master Volume - Push\/Pull (Active\/Passive), Balancer, Bass, Middle, Treble (Passive Tone)\u003cbr\u003ebody condition: There are several dents approximately 3mm in size near the body side and back panel.
