A special signature model by Kenji Hino, also known as JINO, produced in a limited run of only two units. This limited-edition signature model from Kenji "JINO" Hino, whose groove and technique, honed in New York, overwhelm listeners not only in his solo work but also in his session work! This model is inspired by 70s Bullet-type guitars, featuring a weighty ash body, a thick grip one-piece maple neck with skunk stripes, and neck adjustments accessible from the headstock. The Bartolini BC4CBC three-soapbar pickup layout provides a pleasant, gritty midrange from low to mid compared to regular single-coil pickups. It's a versatile instrument that can be instantly switched with a mini-switch, from the quintessential Atelier sound when the EQ is boosted to a punky, edgy sound when using the center soapbar pickup with a pick. The low string action allows for stress-free playing, and the overall playability is a testament to its professional quality, resulting in a flawless finish. The heavy-weight body, typical of ATLIER Z guitars, weighing over 5.5 kg, produces a powerful combination of highs and lows, along with a solid midrange punch, creating a sound that cuts through the mix without getting lost in the ensemble. There are some minor scratches and mounting marks from the pickup fence, but it is in excellent condition with no noticeable large dents. The truss rod has plenty of adjustment range, and the neck is in good condition.
