(It was truly amazing, and I absolutely wanted to introduce it to Japanese musicians, so I persisted quite a bit.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany other brands exhibited at Guitar Summit, and I spoke with various builders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDe Gier came up several times, and it seemed their capabilities were widely known.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral builders even mentioned ordering custom basses from De Gier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat's how highly regarded the brand is in Europe and America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd I myself hold it in the highest regard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model is their mega-hit, the BeBop 5.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarcus Miller purchased a prototype of this model, and Richard Bona ordered one shortly after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt continues to be highly regarded by true musicians like them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is alder, and the fretboard is rosewood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA classic combination that produces a rich midrange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bridge is an original style custom-ordered from ETS, and the tuning machines are GOTOH RES-O-LITE.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe color is a vibrant and beautiful Candy Apple Red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir coloring skills are among the best in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDe Gier uses various pickups depending on the individual instrument, but this particular instrument features Lollar pickups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are custom-wound original models made exclusively for the BeBop5.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile it's basically a passive circuit, it also features a custom Vanderkley Fatboost function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy slightly boosting the low frequencies and lowering the impedance, high-frequency loss is reduced, resulting in a nuance that feels like both the low and high frequencies are boosted simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sound is already complete in passive mode, but simply pushing it a little further seems to create an even more intense impact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis minimalist yet highly effective design is sure to impress every bassist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe third knob is the passive tone control, but the tone's effect can be adjusted via a push-pull switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen rolling back the tone, you might want to round off the high frequencies for a warmer sound, or conversely, strongly emphasize the high-mids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNormally, this would be adjusted by the capacitor choice, but this function allows you to easily select either.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fourth knob is a rotary switch, which turns the Fatboost on and off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite being a 5-string bass, the 3rd and 4th strings retain a pleasant, open nuance with a nice low-mid, while the 1st and 2nd strings retain a harmonically rich midrange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the 5th string retains the trebly, characteristic JB feel, overflowing with a fresh, vibrant tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is exactly what we've been looking for in a 5-string JB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe promise you'll be impressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e●SPECS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlder Body\u003cbr\u003eMaple Neck\u003cbr\u003eRosewood Fingerboard\u003cbr\u003eDots Inlays\u003cbr\u003eBone Nut\u003cbr\u003eLollar Pickups\u003cbr\u003eCandy Apple Red\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivered after being adjusted for easy playability by GIB's craftsmen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccessories: Gig bag, hex wrench, spec sheet\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eText: Shunsuke Saga\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspection 담당: Hayakawa\u003cbr\u003eProduct Photos: Tei\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e◯GIB, TONIQ Warranty\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e●Lifetime Free Maintenance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstruments purchased from our store are eligible for lifetime free \"\"String Vibration Setup\"\" (normally ¥4,400).
