This is from the era when Japanese quality was exceptionally high (a model from 1994 or later, based on the Bunny logo & GOTOH tuners). It completely replicates the original USA-made model of the time, featuring an all-maple, through-neck design with 24 frets. It has DiMarzio-type pickups (PP) and perfectly copied the original's traditional switches, offering a wide variety of sounds (requires a 9V battery). It truly feels like a JAPAN VINTAGE. The paint surface has numerous age-related cracks, and while the appearance isn't what you'd call beautiful, the unique atmosphere and presence that can't be replicated make it feel like a vintage instrument itself, so it has been left as is. There's considerable wear and tear, with many touch-up marks. I own many detachable models, and while I haven't felt a huge difference using them, playing this one again made me realize it's completely different. Due to the hard wood, the body is finished quite thin, and it feels comfortable to hold, with a distinct sense of unity in the wood's resonance. Please see the comparison with the detachable model from the same company in the 10th photo. Through-neck models are rare, and I hesitated to list it, thinking I wouldn't find another in good condition if I let it go. However, I'd like to pass it on to someone who will use it for a long time. Operational Check: I connected it to an amplifier to check its operation for the listing. There was no major crackling, and it was outputting sound. The neck has a slight bow, and setting the bridge low, I felt a slight buzzing around the 12th fret, but it's within a usable range. The truss rod's effectiveness hasn't been confirmed. With many switches, it's a convenient bass for quick on-site settings. It has an ultra-solid, tight sound quality, which I feel only comes from using good wood. I haven't conducted long-term tests, so please understand that there may be minor issues I haven't noticed. I decline requests for disassembly checks, string height and fret checks, or sound uploads. The strings are not new. They are for adjustment purposes only, as they will deteriorate over time due to hand adjustments and play testing. Please consider them as adjustment strings and install new strings once you've achieved your preferred setup. To prevent any issues, I have taken detailed photos of the serial number and each part, and I have video recordings of the operational check and the packaging process. Please feel confident in your purchase. Shipping: The body will be wrapped in bubble wrap and packed in a recycled cardboard box for shipping. The appearance may not be the best.
