Description: Neck-though bass with EMG upgraded electronics. I know very little about this bass. Got it from a friend. It plays very nice. Great feel. Here’s the description from Kawai:FIIB is a through-neck is 5 pc. laminated Maple and Mahogany with a 22 fret Rosewood fingerboard. The bodies were 3 pc. laminated Maple/Maple, Mahogany/Maple, Maple/Koa and Maple/Zebra. There were also a small number of FIIB basses that came in Black, Pearl White and Candy Apple Red. In the early 1990’s, FIIB basses became the FIIB110KS and were available only with a Maple/Koa body although other finishes were available in Japan. Other changes included the elimination of the heavy brass bridge in favor of a Schaller 3-D4 bridge with the strings attaching at the end of the bridge rather than coming through the body as before. This bass has been modified (upgraded with EMG pickups). The original pre-amps control the “tone character” switches for each pickup. In the center position the bass is essentially “flat.” The other two switch positions provide combinations of cut and boost at various frequencies. There are modifications to the body. Two holes are filled in. I’m sure this is because of the EMG modifications.sold as-is
