Our flagship brand, "BLACK SMOKER," presents the "Trad Master" with an aged finish.

BLACK SMOKER is a handmade brand from BLACK CLOUD, a workshop in Nagano Prefecture, a mecca for musical instrument manufacturing where many brands are located. This brand, which is already generating buzz among many professional musicians for its high sense of style and high quality in terms of sound, playability, and looks, is a noteworthy brand created by three people: Mr. Kuroiwa, the representative who has been involved in the design and manufacture of numerous manufacturers and models; Mr. Yanagisawa, a young builder who creates with him; and Mr. Itasaka, a builder who has honed his skills at a long-established Japanese brand.

The "Trad Master" series has already gained high praise and popularity. This model features a simple yet standard, classic specification that allows you to fully appreciate the brand's true value, finished with lacquer paint and aged processing to give it a vintage feel. It adopts standard specifications based on the 60s style, with an alder body, maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard. Although the specifications are simple, you will immediately know that the materials have been carefully selected from the first note you play. The neck shape has a solid nut width and thickness typical of a PB, but the smooth curve makes it easy to play. The original pickups reproduce the resonance of the body while producing a thick, punchy sound. The setup is smooth and stress-free to play. In short, this bass is a product where the "quality of the instrument's construction" is directly conveyed. The tonal inconsistency that is a problem with many PB-type basses is settled in just the right place, "retaining some wildness while being well-controlled," resulting in a wonderful finish that fuses the wildness of a PB with modern ease of use at a high level. The aged lacquer finish, which exudes exceptional taste, along with the aged parts (which, like the pickups, have been modified specifically for this series) and the vintage-style bridge, contribute significantly not only to the looks but also to a thicker, more impactful sound.

In terms of appearance, it boasts a meticulously crafted design, including an aged finish with minimal weather checking and an exquisitely nuanced Olympic White color. While maintaining a vintage-like look, the playability and sound pressure are undeniably impressive, reflecting the brand's pride in its construction. This is a truly superb bass that I wholeheartedly recommend, achieving at an extremely high level the ideal of "a coexistence of vintage looks and sound with modern playability and stability."

Due to its limited production run as a handmade instrument, this highly-regarded brand has very limited availability. With playability and sound recognized by professionals, this bass is already making a name for itself in the music scene. Experience its exceptional quality for yourself.
