Low stick without head, made in Japan in 1985-86 by Matsumoku.
24 frets, 2 humbucker pickups type, volume of each micro + tone of all (well I suppose, on mine it has no effect)
The adjustment is done by mechanical knobs under the tailpiece.
Unlike most of the lower poles are not required to use ropes to two ball ends, that's a very good point.
Apparently it's rare, but mine still has its original bag worth a visit: a kind of gun case soft silver gray ...

UTILIZATION
The handle is comfortable and access to acute is excellent but there is a weird thing: on a low 'normal' when I play on the 12th box, my arm is very close to the body and the Quantum, the same position makes me regain on 15è box is quite confusing initially.
The bass is very light and pretty well balanced (it is expected worse, given the form ..)
It's just difficult for the store: no head and the finesse of the body that it does not take the arms of a classical guitar stand.
SOUNDS
The sound is largely the weak point of this bass. It is not necessarily bad but it is the zero level of versatility. The sounds sound quite typed 'antiquated', not completely deaf but no gloss: a slappeur throw this bass after 10 seconds.
It is the only low I like playing with a pick with just the neck pickup on, it's very 60s. The problem is that it always quickly tired of the same type ...
OVERALL OPINION
I bought this bass secondhand there ten years for the look but I've never used on stage (or even rehearsed!) So the sound is poor.
One thing I always found strange she sounds much better directly the mixer than real bass amp!
As against it is fun to play and you can leave it permanently connected: it does not take place. I use it exclusively at home for me untie the hands and dial.
Overall I glad but there it plus collector who speaks bassist ... Someday I him put vouchers microphones and I can her out!
