Yikes! That looks rough as a cob. I'm no expert, but that just screams FAKE to me. The wood looks exceedingly cheap and the bass itself looks poorly made. The Japanese may be many things, but they are nothing if not expert carpenters and woodworkers with a many thousands of years old tradition of excellence.

+1!

Give it a wide berth.
