The FGN Shimamura Music History CV-BJ4 Custom Bass is a harmonious blend of vintage allure and modern craftsmanship, designed for musicians who crave both classic aesthetics and contemporary performance. This electric bass boasts an Alder body that resonates with a rich, full-bodied tone, while its Heritage wood hard maple neck, adorned with bird's eye detailing, offers a smooth, satin finish for effortless playability.

Best bang for your buck Japanese-made Jazz Bass

Fujigen manufactures these for Shimamura Music as their in-house brand of instruments. Fujigen also manufactured Fender Japan's products in the late 80s until the late 90s. These feel very much like those instruments for half the cost of a MIJ Fender. Total killer
