【used】Sugi / NB6C A POP/ASH 2017 4.790kg #S170071【GIB Yokohama】

Sugi is a brand by Mr. Sugimoto, a legend who has supported Japanese guitar making for many years.
We manufacture high quality guitars and basses in Nagano Prefecture, and are highly valued by many musicians.

NB is known as a flagship model and is known to be used by Hojin Egawa, Mike Porcaro of TOTO, and others.

This is a slightly rare 6-string active circuit model.
Basically, most of them are 5-string passives, so they have elaborate specifications.

The top of the body is Burl Poplar and the back is Ash.
It has an exotic look.

The neck is a laminate type of Maple and Mahogany, and the fingerboard is Cocoboro.

GOTOH is used for the bridge and tuner, but these are not normal.
It was originally custom made by Sugi and is optimized for this bass.

Even though it has 24 frets, it has a distinctive sound that feels open without being too tight.
I feel that this feature has a positive impact on both finger play and slap.

Approximately 90% of the frets remain.
The truss rod works well.
The neck is in good condition.
The condition of the body and paint surface is that there are some dents and scratches here and there.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No obvious modification points were found.

On the back of the neck is written 4/29 NB6C POP/ASH 2P NAT 2017.04.15.
S17007 17 4/28 oo is written on the back panel of the control.
The pickup is listed as Sugi SB-86WJ. Original single coil.
