Sound
:
8
It is brightly clear and has a speedy sound. Such a sound is new in a base without a fret. Since the noise is also stopped well, it can use also for recording, and since it is a clear tone, the live is not buried, either. Although the dark sound can also be made if tone control is used, but if such a sound is liking, those who used the ordinary jazz base are so in merit.
Action, Fit, & Finish
:
9
When this base was seen for the first time, I thought that it was beautiful. Although oil finish is mainly adopted by this brand, only this series is finished with lacquer. Structure and finish are polite and perfect.
A finger board is smooth and it is very easy to play it.
Reliability/Durability
:
8
This musical instrument has high reliability. Especially the bridge is made precisely [ rigidity is high ]. Therefore, it is hard to produce the deviation by carrying etc. Since change of humidity or temperature is sharp, Japan's technology of paint is high especially.
Customer Support
:
8
In Japan, although sufficient support can be received, it does not use yet. It is because it has not broken down by being reliable. Almost all adjustments can be simply performed by the own hand of a player.
Overall Rating

After I purchase this musical instrument, the still not much long date has not passed. However, there is much number of times of a performance also in the musical instrument which is surely bringing this musical instrument each time, and I own. If Fretless-bass is asked only for a sweet and dark sound, I will think that this musical instrument is not required. However, I like the bright and fine tone which this musical instrument has, and can also make various sound with control. It is a reason for having chosen this bass that it is precise and is more reliable than anything.
