STR DSC 549

STR is based in Nagano, Japan.

This bass was created by their Custom Shop. It is world class , as good ( my opinion ) as any other builder you can find.

• Mahogany body , 9lbs
• Koa top and head stock cap
• 34″ scale 3 piece Maple neck ( w/two Walnut runners ) , 24 frets – Set Neck Design
• Bone Nut , full width 1.89″
• String spacing at the bridge 19mm
• Deviser dual coil pickups
• Aguilar OBP-3 preamp with active/passive , mid freq select , passive tone control , single/series/parallel switch per pickup
• Gotoh tuners, Hipshot style A bridge
• Gig Bag

This bass plays extremely well , the action can go low and buzz free if you like.

The inherent voice of this bass is warm with the bonus of great articulation. The set neck vs. neck-thru and bolt on has the girth of a neck-thru and the snap of a bolt-on.

The preamp offers extensive tone shaping capabilities, if you are into that sort of thing.

The bass kills in passive mode.

I stand by what I said earlier – ” as good as any “. Play this bass , you tell me.

Have I ever steered you wrong ?

US MSRP $5,500

 Luthiers Access Group has been Chicago’s original and premier bass shop since 1995.
Twenty three years later we remain Chicago’s #1 custom bass dealer.

My original goal was to find the hidden gems in the world of bass from near and far.

The focus remains the same today.

I have played basses by nearly all of the well-known, highly regarded bass builders out there.

I am comfortable stating that the bass builders of Luthiers Access Group offer instruments of at least equal quality.
