price drop.

I used to own a Suhr and these are are easily as good at half the price. Different but the quality and playability are just as good. .

😆 sorry yes 47mm.

Sound demo of an Atelier Z with the exact spec.

18mm at the bridge. No neck dive that i can tell. I use a Sadowsky strap with no problem. It weighs 9.2 pounds on my scale.

The width of the neck at the nut is 97 mm

Were these not all made in Japan.? I thought they were a Japanese company. Im probably wrong. I played one of these at Bass Direct and it was off the chart good. Really punchy through a Genz rig.

phenomenal 6 string bass. Yamaha at its very best.

Im thinking of keeping this because it really has grown on me. especially the neck and preamp. but one last bump. Atelier Z DAL custom 70's jazz. 9.3 pounds. It was a custom order as I have found out. I emailed AZ and they told me it was made by Mas Hino in 1997. Look up Mas Hino if you don't already know of him. You won't see another DAL custom in black with this weight or specs. This will be my last bump then I will withdraw the instrument. Alder chambered body. Ash top. One piece maple neck with skunk stripe. Atelier Z JBZ 5 pickups, 70,s spacing .Atelier Z EQ/M 2 band preamp... amazingly engineered resolite Gotoh tuners and bridge. A few dings but nothing major. Neck is super comfortable. Very flat. It a 70's jazz bass sounding instrument. The neck is maple with cream binding and goldish pearl block inlays. Its amazingly well made as are all Atelier Z s are with a really tight sounding B string. . 70's pickup spacing. Sounds killer like a 70's jazz does without the weight Trades. Light weight Lakland 55-02 deluxe + cash. Other high end Jazz basses or soapbar basses. 5 string only.

Im suprised that this hasnt hadnt had more interest. The price is subjective of course but ive played a few of these and they are the real deal 5 string jazz basses.
