His small dedicated team hand build these and the high end ibanez at their Nagano based workshop. Sugi use only the finest materials and hardware and developed their own unique pick ups that are beautifully balanced in output, virtually noise free, and very accurate and true to the instrument and sound excellent in the mix .
