[new] OOPEGG / Supreme Collection Stormbreaker Bass Shoreline Gold #21091 4.16kg [Yokohama store]

OOPEGG is a boutique brand based in Japan with a global presence.
Due to extremely small production numbers, there are not many in circulation.
However, OOPEGG is highly regarded by many world-class professional musicians and continues to attract attention.

This model is the brand's first bass.
As you can see, it has a unique design that is not bound by existing formats (Fender, etc.).

When I first saw the proto model, it looked quite aggressive and peppy.
However, when I actually played it, I was fascinated by its well-balanced, musical, and beautiful sound as a bass, and decided to order it immediately.

The scale is 31 inches.
The Fender Jazz bass is 34 inches. Gibson EB-3 and Fender Mustang basses use a scale of about 30 inches.

Although they use a relatively short scale, they still feature loose and loud low-frequency nuances similar to basses with shorter scales.

However, the bass is not difficult to play due to the short scale.
The head angle and the angle of the bridge bend were researched extensively, and the result is a bass that is comfortable for those who normally play 34-inch basses.

The bridge was originally designed and manufactured in Greece.
By making it original and making fine adjustments in the woodworking part, the proper tension feeling is given to the player.

The pickups are Guild BS-1 Bisonic in the neck and Serek LZN-B90 Humbucker (Bridge) in the bridge.
The cohabitation of different brands is not common among bass brands, and can be said to be unique to OOPEGG.

Nevertheless, the excellent balance in the mix is probably due to the designer's strong grounding in the field.

Controls include 2 volume, 2 tone, and a 4-way rotary switch.
The switches are neck, neck + bridge, neck + bridge (passive filtered), and bridge.

The neck is deep and the bridge is crisp and powerful.
The mixed position is well-balanced, and the filtered position is nuanced with well-controlled low-frequency volume.

In some studios or ensembles, the low frequencies may seem too much, and this filter can be useful in those situations.

The tuners are HIPSHOT Ultralite lollipop.
There is still a reason why we use pegs that are lightweight, and in this condition it is an excellent weight balance.

This is a unique product that is not often released from a brand that has been making basses purely for the sake of making basses.

Do you think this bass is worth the price? What do you think?
Please give it a try.
