(We don't carry all of these brands.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTherefore, we needed to create a bass that we could wholeheartedly recommend with confidence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst, we participated in trade shows in China to find a factory that offered a good balance of price and quality, and negotiated directly with them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter comparing many factories, we contracted with one that possessed high technical capabilities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe have already jointly manufactured over 2000 basses, and based on that experience, we implement thorough quality control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter manufacturing in China, we conduct multiple rigorous quality inspections.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnly basses that pass inspections twice in China and once in Japan are stocked for sale.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter import, our specialist staff perform the final assembly in Japan, and we inspect each instrument again before shipping.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ONE series focuses on a lower price range, making it especially recommended for beginners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile we don't claim it's the same as high-end basses, it was designed to provide a reliable instrument for those buying their first 5-string bass or those just starting out.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Hank 5 M is a modern model based on the 5-string JB style.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt aims to have a wide tonal range, be easy to play, and produce a powerful sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor beginners, the most important thing is playability (ease of playing).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf this isn't guaranteed, you won't be able to play the phrases you want because of the instrument. It becomes an instrument problem, not a lack of practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor beginners who can't distinguish between lack of practice and an instrument problem, this is extremely important.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe nut, neck curvature, string height, and pickup height, which all affect playability, are carefully adjusted one by one in Japan by our specialist staff.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur basses are adjusted with the assumption that the buyer will be a beginner, so you can start practicing with confidence from the moment you receive it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHowever, many people may be concerned about the fretwork on basses in this price range.\u003cbr\u003eIn fact, it's not uncommon for instruments with lower costs to have poorly finished frets, resulting in playability issues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat's why all woofy basses are inspected by GIB's expert staff.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe perform thorough setups and sell them only after ensuring they are in a condition where you can comfortably play them from the day you receive them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, while pursuing cost-effectiveness, we do not compromise on important parts that directly affect sound and playability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn particular, we paid close attention to the pickups, which are the microphones that capture string vibrations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe prioritize clear and distinct sound production.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis ensures that your playing is clearly audible and allows for well-balanced sound production within an ensemble.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile we may not be able to offer instruments suitable for professional stages, we provide products that are reliable for beginners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe do not engage in secondary distribution (wholesale).\u003cbr\u003eBy limiting sales to direct sales from GIB, we pursue the highest quality while keeping prices down.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(Warranty is only provided for purchases within Japan.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eColor Variations:\u003cbr\u003eRed\u003cbr\u003eBlack\u003cbr\u003eWhite\u003cbr\u003eSunburst\u003cbr\u003eOrange\u003cbr\u003eCherry Sunburst\u003cbr\u003eNatural\u003cbr\u003eSee Through Red\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[The image is a sample; please note that due to the nature of the product, the item you receive may not look exactly the same.]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e●Price includes VAT \u0026amp; Duties \u0026amp; Shipping Fee\u003cbr\u003eFree Shipping Worldwide.
