Description
ATELIER Z M#245 NAT
The domestic brand "ATELIER Z" boasts high technical skill and design sensibility. In addition to manufacturing electric basses, they also produce electric guitars, and have now developed into a popular brand that commands trust from professional artists.
The model we have in stock this time is the "M245," a flagship model that possesses the orthodox sound character compatible with all music genres characteristic of jazz basses while inheriting the merits of vintage instruments. The weight is 5.3kg.
Adopting an original JB body and block position markers, it is a long-seller with exceptional playability and is also the model of Tomohito Aoki. It clearly brings out the attack feel unique to slap technique and possesses materials that can keep pace with the wide range of high-end amplifiers.
A orthodox combination of 2-piece ash body, comfortable-to-play maple neck, and 20-fret maple fingerboard. The tuning pegs are reliable GOTOH brand, and the pickguard is a clear type—the logo has worn away on this one.
The controls are presumably 2VOL / TREBLE / BASS / MID BOOST, which is a custom configuration different from standard. There are no push-pull controls. The pickups are original type with "ATELIER Z" markings.
Please experience the high quality of domestic basses that compete through the potential of the wood, user-friendly electronics, and Japanese technical skill.
Sound variation compatible with any genre and playability—this is a practical, orthodox 4-string bass that's easy to use! The included case is SKB, not the standard one, so it's quite luxurious!
