Description

The JT series is designed to be ready for immediate use, and is set up by experienced Japanese craftsmen at WDG (Workshop Deviser Guitars) in Matsumoto, Nagano Prefecture, where the parts that directly affect playability are adjusted and set up one by one, with great care, from fret filing, nut processing, saddle adjustment, and fret edge processing, by experienced Japanese craftsmen. The WL model inherits the Dinky-shaped body of the WOODLINE that was

cultivated in the Handmade Series, and is designed to be slightly slimmer than the general JB-type electric bass, for excellent playability. The body top is made of quilted maple with beautiful grain that catches the eye, the body back is made of nato wood with rich mid-low range that has characteristics similar to mahogany, and the outer circumference of the body is bound with black binding for a firm look, and the matte finish of the matte type gives it a refined and calm impression. The neck and fingerboard are heat-treated at high temperature. Roasted maple, which is often used in high-end models, is used to increase rigidity by evaporating a certain amount of moisture and oil in the wood, producing a rich natural sound and a familiar tone like a vintage that has aged over time. In

addition to the high-quality finish of each part, the attention to parts and functions has been inherited, and an original neck plate made of brass is used, which is characterized by a bass tone that spreads from the mid-low range to the denser range with a higher specific gravity than conventional products, and the “Turbo Switch” familiar to “WOODLINE” models is also installed in this model. By pulling up the tone knob, the two single pickups are connected in series, creating a thick sound like a humbucking pickup. (※When the turbo switch is on, the volume is adjusted with the front Vol knob. The rear Vol knob is bypassed at this time)
