WOODS
BODY: we’ve chosen a two pieces alder
body, one of the most used wood thanks to
its round and sparkling
tonal characteristics, still keeping
a standard
weight. Body and matching
headstock are Green painted,
a color enhancing the design charm and
that is also a trademark of the
whole Ninja series.
NECK: Canadian maple with flat
cut and two graphite
bars to offer maximum
stability, with a pretty comfortable
profile and dual action truss
rod adjustable on the headstock.
FRETBOARD: Maple, 34" scale, 24
ultra carefully refinished frets and
black GraphTech nut.
HARDWARE
On the Kimandu version we’ve
chosen high quality custom machine
heads, 20:1
ratio, ultra
light, precise and reliable.
We picked a high quality Custom
bridge as well with zinc
saddles wrenched on the bridge base to get
the best
sustain and sound
transfer.
PICKUPS
The Kimandu version soapbar
pickups have
been custom built
on Markbass specs to perfectly match
our electronic to get smooth
bass, right focus on
the mid
range and bright and defined
treble.
We also offer
as optional the handmade
ebony ramp perfectly matched with the pick ups
profile.
ELECTRONIC
The Kimandu bass features
a Markbass custom electronic as
well, simple, intuitive and effective even
on extreme settings.
Controls are VOLUME/VOLUME/TONE (with an active/passive switch on
Tone) letting an incredible pickups blending capability compared
to a regular Blend control and with active BASS/MID/TREBLE… so
you’re not gonna have resounding bass or blowing treble.
The frequency values have been chosen
to offer a wide range of
tones that you can use on any
setting. The TONE control
(working also in the passive mode) has been defined by Richard as
the “G Point” because of
its accurate efficacy letting to move
from smooth and warm tones
to bright and hi-fi ones,
everything in a one of a kind “sensual” way.
