Since 1978, Moon Guitars has been a pioneer in custom components and remains a leading figure among Japan’s many long-established manufacturers.

Under the “Moon” and “PGM” brands, their instruments have been played by numerous top artists, including Steve Lukather, Larry Graham, Mitsuru Sudo, and Keisuke Kuwata. Backed by this distinguished history, their high-quality, handcrafted construction and authentic sound continue to attract new players today.

This is truly the signature model of Mitsuru Sudo, one of the most iconic Moon bass players!

Based on the JB-5 and tailored to his personal preferences, this 5-string model is popular for being accessible to a wide range of players.

It features an alder body, maple neck, and ebony fingerboard.

Key features include 21 frets, a 34-inch long scale, a satin-finished neck grip, and a volume bypass switch.

The body features a heel cut to make playing in the higher positions easier, and combined with the compact, original body design, it boasts excellent playability.

This model is equipped with the manufacturer’s original MJB575 pickup.

The preamp is a Bartolini XTCT, featuring a 3-band equalizer for tone shaping.

Perhaps the most distinctive feature of the Sutoh model is the mini-switch located next to the control plate;

toggling this switch bypasses the volume control, allowing you to instantly switch between tones for fingerstyle and slap playing.

The Sutoh model’s trademark finger rest is mounted near the rear pickup.

Positioned directly beneath the low-B string, it allows for exceptionally smooth playing.

A bass trusted by musicians who continue to lead the way.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for an easy-to-play model!
