Momose MJ FIVE 2 ACT TW/R - Japanese craftsmanship for your groove

If you're looking for an exceptional 5-string bass, the Momose MJ FIVE 2 ACT TW/R is for you. Handcrafted in the Momose workshops in Japan, this bass combines tradition and innovation for outstanding playability and an incredibly rich sound.

Exceptional craftsmanship

Each Momose is crafted with unrivalled expertise: from the choice of wood to the final assembly, everything is done with surgical precision. The thermowood maple neck ensures perfect stability, even in extreme conditions, while offering a natural, fluid playing feel. The Indian Rosewood fingerboard brings a unique warmth and roundness to the notes.

Selected woods for a powerful, expressive sound

• 2-piece Ash body: renowned for its perfect balance between brilliance and bass depth, this wood adds punch and dynamics to the sound.
• Indian Rosewood fingerboard: renowned for its warm resonance and precise response, it promotes expressive, natural playing.
• Thermowood maple neck: stabilized by advanced heat treatment, it guarantees greater resistance to climatic variations and optimal vibration transmission.

Top-of-the-range pickups and electronics

The Momose MJ FIVE 2 ACT TW/R features a pair of Momose VJ-5 pickups, specially designed to deliver precise, balanced sound. Combined with the Aguilar OBP-2 preamp, these pickups offer a wide sound spectrum, perfect for every nuance of playing, from punchy slap to deep, mellow bass lines.

Ergonomics designed for comfort and performance

Momose has refined the design of the body for better access to the treble, thanks to a slimmer cutout. This design improves playability in high positions, ideal for solos and complex melodic passages.

Another detail is the optimized neck joint with recessed plate, which combines the hold of a classic screw joint with a design that facilitates access to the last frets.

An instrument built to last

The fingerboard is fitted with a wooden binding, protecting the fret edges and ensuring an ultra-smooth finish. More comfort, less wear: your bass will remain as pleasant to play after years of use.
