The Momose MC2/R is a refined ST-style electric guitar, combining traditional design with the precision and craftsmanship of Japanese guitar building.
Handcrafted at the Aska Workshop in Nagano, the MC2/R pairs a two-piece ash body with a maple neck and Indian rosewood fingerboard for an articulate, balanced response with clear attack and excellent note separation.
Tone & Character
Equipped with Momose VS-1 single-coil pickups, the MC2/R delivers vintage-inspired tones with excellent clarity and dynamic response. The Indian rosewood fingerboard adds a slightly warmer, rounder character while retaining the definition and responsiveness of the ash body.
Craftsmanship
Built with Jescar frets, GOTOH hardware, and an oiled bone nut, every detail is selected for reliable performance and refined playability.

Black Crane Notes
Compared to the maple-fingerboard MC2/M, the MC2/R offers a slightly warmer and rounder response, while retaining the clarity and articulation of its ash body. A beautifully balanced choice for players who prefer a more traditional rosewood playing feel.
