Our flagship brand "BLACK SMOKER", the Tradmaster series with a lacquer and aged finish "BLACK SMOKER" is a handmade brand from BLACK CLOUD, a workshop in Nagano Prefecture, a mecca for musical instrument manufacturing where many brands are located. This brand has already gained popularity among many professional musicians for its sophisticated and high-quality sound, playability, and looks. It's a notable brand created by three people: CEO Kuroiwa, who has been involved in the design and manufacturing of numerous manufacturers and models, young builder Yanagisawa, who collaborates with him, and builder Itasaka, who has worked for a long-established Japanese brand. The highly acclaimed and popular "TradMaster" series is a classic 5-string model with simple, standard specs that showcase the brand's true value, finished with a lacquer finish and aged finish for a vintage feel. Featuring a standard alder body, maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard, this 60s bass bass guitar boasts a classic '60s bass guitar. While the specs are simple, the carefully selected materials are immediately apparent upon first note. The neck shape is slim for playability, yet retains its core tone. The power of the original pickups, specifically tuned for this series, delivers a thick, punchy sound while accurately reproducing the body's resonance. The smooth setup allows for effortless playing, making this bass a testament to the instrument's excellent craftsmanship. The tonal inconsistency that can be a problem with many bass bass guitars is perfectly balanced, maintaining a sense of cohesion while retaining some wildness. The result is a stunning finish that combines the wildness of bass bass guitars with modern ease of use at a high level. The stylish lacquer finish with an aged finish, aged parts modified for this series like the pickups, and vintage-style bridge all contribute greatly not only to the looks but also to a thicker, more imposing sound. In terms of looks, the guitar also boasts a specially crafted spec, such as an aged finish with only light weather-checking, all of which were ordered by our shop. While boasting a vintage-like look, the playability and sound pressure are truly in keeping with the brand's pride, which is truly impressive. This is a fantastic bass that realizes the ideal of "what if a vintage low B5-string existed" at an extremely high level, and we wholeheartedly recommend it. Due to the limited production numbers, this is a highly sought-after brand, and the number of units distributed is extremely limited. This bass is recognized by professionals for both its playability and sound, and its quality has already made a big name for itself in the scene.Body Wood: Alder Neck Wood: Maple Fingerboard Wood: Indian Rosewood Neck Shape: C Shape Scale: 864mm / 20F Nut/Width: Bone / 48mm Frets: Medium Jumbo NS Radius: 305R Hardware Color: Chrome & Nickel Machineheads: GOTOH GB528 Bridge: GOTOH 205B-5 Pickups: BLACK SMORKER Electronics: Volume, Tone Neck Finish: Lacquer Body Finish: Lacquer Gig bag included
