Kanade Gen Koubou (Harmony String Instrument Workshop) are a very small operation based in Earthquake ravaged Ishikawa prefecture, not far from the 2024 disaster site.
I had been scouting these for a while as they looked very promising, so I decided to buy a few new stock for BJD
This particular one caught my eye, being a single cut pj with active circuitry. It has a superb neck, super low action, wide tonal range and sounds and plays like a Fodera or Ken Smith. It is now sold out but you can organize an order through us.
The aesthetics of this bass are beautiful, with the matching countersunk wooden bridge, gorgeous magenta fade finish, custom matching wood dials all made with stunning materials, an eye for aesthetics, and great functionality.
