Not to mentioned the extra time involved to seat, level, and dress the stainless steel frets. The inlay work on this bass involved individually cutting, sanding and seating well over 90 individual pieces of shell and wood. The reason for the name is fairly obvious: the entire span of the top of this bass is inlayed with many cherry blossoms made from various types of wood and seashells. Ibanez' Japanese Custom Shop team opted for the name ‘Sakura’, ‘cherry blossom’ in Japanese, for this very special bass.
