FGN (Fujigen) Neo Classic Electric Bass Vintage Natural
Established in 1960, FGN (FUJIGEN) has been manufacturing guitars and basses for many world famous brands for half a century. As the original manufacturer, FGN are responsible for the highest quality (and probably for the success) of many of the worlds most respected brands, Such as fender Japan and Ibanez Japan.
Compound Radius (for NCST, NCTL)
FGN employs a specific "Compound Radius" ratio on the fingerboard, representing advanced fingerboard technology. The neck radius gradually increases over the finger board's length, starting out rounded near the headstock and flattening out toward the neck joint. A diameter of 250mm (10") was selected for the radius at the nut for optimal comfort and grip for chords. A 350mm (14") radius at the heel has proven to be ideal in eliminating any unwanted buzz of string bending that may be caused by over-tightened fingerboard radius traditionally countered by high string action. The Compound Radius affords comfortable and easy bends even with string action below 1.9mm and ensures smooth fingering when playing solo passages high on the neck for Odyssey series, NCST, NCTL.
