MOMOSE MJ2/R – RENEW 2026
Vintage DNA, elevated by Japanese craftsmanship
The new MOMOSE MJ2/R – RENEW 2026 edition builds on a rare tradition of craftsmanship, whilst incorporating innovations that make a clear difference from the very first notes. This isn’t simply a reimagined JB-style bass… but an instrument designed, crafted and refined by hand to deliver an exceptional playing experience.
A bass that breathes, resonates… and inspires
The two-piece ash body sets the tone straight away: a crisp attack, excellent definition and impressive dynamics. It’s the ideal wood for those who want a bass that ‘stands out’ in the mix, with solid bass tones and precise highs.
The maple neck provides stability and excellent vibration transmission, whilst the Indian rosewood fingerboard softens the overall sound with natural warmth and a rich, musical tone.
The result?
A perfect balance between clarity, depth and expressiveness.
Playability designed for discerning musicians
From the moment you pick it up, it’s clear that this MJ2/R has been designed for long hours of play.
- Comfortable C-shaped neck profile
- Modern 310R radius: ideal for low action and technical playing
- Easy access to the high frets thanks to the redesigned cutaway
- Slightly recessed neck-to-body joint for a smoother feel
Every detail is designed to serve the musician, without compromise.
The MOMOSE 2026 Revamp: Tangible Changes
This RENEW 2026 version marks a real step up in quality :
- New Gravitas-J pickups: perfect balance between each string, richer bass and more pronounced mid-range
- Turbo Switch (push/pull): a passive boost that instantly thickens your tone
- Luminlay inlays: perfect visibility on stage, even in the dark
- High-precision GOTOH® tuners (20:1 ratio): impeccable tuning stability
- Jescar® medium jumbo frets: comfort and precision
- Centralab oil-filled capacitor: a more musical response, with nuances rendered more accurately
Every improvement has been designed to enrich your sound palette without compromising the instrument’s essence.
Exceptional craftsmanship
Every MOMOSE bass is entirely handcrafted at the Aska workshop in Matsumoto, Japan. There is no assembly-line production here: each instrument passes through the hands of experienced luthiers, from the woodworking stage right through to the final adjustments.
The legacy of Yasuo Momose
The MOMOSE brand is named after Yasuo Momose, recognised as a true Master Craftsman in Japan. For decades, he has handcrafted instruments, developing his own tools and techniques to achieve an exceptional level of precision.
Respected for his high standards and his deeply human approach to instrument making, he has passed on a simple philosophy:
==> every instrument must be unique, alive, and inspiring to the musician.
It is this legacy that is found in every MJ2/R.
