【new】De Gier / Bebop 5 Silver Green 4.325kg #470【GIB Yokohama】【price included SHIPPING & IMPORT TAX & VAT】

De Gier is a Dutch brand founded in 1996 by Sander De Gier.

He originally focused on creating unique and modern bass guitars, but now his main products are in the Fender style.

While the brand was already highly regarded, since the release of the BeBop, a JB-style model, its exceptional quality has kept him completely occupied with that project.

Currently, in addition to the Fender style, they also offer unique models incorporating Gibson style elements.

I first encountered De Gier at the Guitar Summit held in Germany in 2022.

At first glance, its presence filled me with anticipation, and that feeling turned into certainty the moment I strummed the strings.

I was so overwhelmed by the incredible quality that I began negotiations.

Initially, sales to Japan were difficult for various reasons, but after persistent negotiations, we have now been able to begin sales. (It was truly amazing, and I absolutely wanted to introduce it to Japanese musicians, so I persisted quite a bit.)

Many other brands exhibited at Guitar Summit, and I spoke with various builders.

De Gier was mentioned several times, and it seemed their capabilities were widely known.

Several builders even mentioned ordering custom basses from De Gier.

That's how highly regarded the brand is in Europe and America.

And I myself hold them in the highest regard as well.

This model is their mega-hit, the BeBop 5.

Marcus Miller purchased a prototype of this model, and Richard Bona immediately ordered one.

It continues to be highly regarded by true musicians like them.

This is a show model from Guitar Summit 2026.

The body is alder, and the neck and fretboard are one-piece roasted maple.

The one-piece neck and roasted maple were introduced with this show model, and it will be possible to order this specification in the future.

The bridge is a custom-ordered original style from ETS, and the tuning machines are GOTOH RES-O-LITE.

The color is a vibrant and beautiful Silver Green.

Their coloring skills are among the best in the world.

The headstock also features binding, giving it a luxurious feel befitting a show model.

De Gier uses various pickups depending on the individual instrument, but this one is equipped with Lollar pickups.

This is a custom-wound original model made exclusively for the BeBop5.

While it is basically a passive circuit, it also features a custom Vanderkley Fatboost function.

By slightly boosting the low frequencies and lowering the impedance, high-frequency loss is reduced, resulting in a nuance that feels like both the low and high frequencies are boosted simultaneously.

The sound is already complete in passive mode, but simply pushing it a little further seems to give it an even more intense impact.

This minimalist yet highly effective design is sure to impress every bassist.

The third knob controls the passive tone, but a push-pull switch allows you to adjust how the tone is affected.

When rolling off the tone, you might want to round off the high frequencies for a warmer sound, or conversely, strongly emphasize the high-mids.

Normally, this would be adjusted by the capacitor choice, but this feature makes it easy to select either.

The fourth knob is a rotary switch that turns the Fatboost on and off.

Despite being a 5-string bass, the 3rd and 4th strings retain a pleasant, open nuance with rich low-mids, while the 1st and 2nd strings retain a harmonically rich midrange.

And the 5th string retains that trebly, classic JB feel, overflowing with vibrant pitch.

This is exactly what we've been looking for in a 5-string JB.

We promise you'll be impressed.
