The WL-JB is another Craft Series model that offers a professional grade instrument at
an affordable price.
It has the same functionality as the Woodline DX passive model, but costs less due to mid range
hardware and imported materials rather than the hand sourced light ash used in the Hand Made DX range.
This instrument is still hand made in Japan at the ASKA plant, and the neck and fret board feel just the same as
the DX. wonderful!

My Review.
I think I like this almost as much as the woodline DX apart from the body construction
and weight being heavier. The body being three piece construction is not quite as resonant
and the bridge does not offer the string through option, however, for a passive Jazz bass
around the $1000 mark, this truly kicks ass! I love the neck and fretboard on this, it is nice and rugged
and feels consistent with the rest of the range and also the DX range too.
The hardware looks stylish in black and functions perfectly well,
the pearloid scratch plate matches the block inlays and trim nicely, and the headstock matches body color.
A good looking instrument, not to mention good sounding too. 9/10
You can buy this instrument direct with shipping included in the price, it'll ship tracked and insured with in just about 1 week with EMS to anywhere in the world except South America and Africa which cost an extra $60 to ship from Japan.
