"HARU"
This bass is a beautiful example of our Japan Custom Shop team combining the venerable SR design with captivating visuals meant to reflect the mood and splendor of spring. As such, they opted to name it ‘Haru,’ which is Japanese for ‘spring’. Another principal inspiration for this bass is the is the blooming of the weeping cherry tree, or ‘Shidarezakura,’ in Japanese. The color of the tree is reflected in the stunning Cherry Blossom Pink finish adorning the heavily figured Maple Burl top. Other highlights include painted wooden pickup covers that seamlessly match the top, premium gold hardware, and a jet-black Ebony fretboard. To top it all off, there is a stunning Cherry Blossom Inlay at the 12th fret made from Mother of Pearl. This bass offers one of the clearest visions of the talents of our Japan Custom Shop and the meticulous attention to detail they pour into every instrument.
