Master your sound. The electrifying sound of the Player Plus Jazz Bass comes from the active Player Plus Noiseless Jazz Bass single coil pickups in the bridge and middle positions. Shooting out fountains of rich, luscious tone, they will inspire you with their incredible detail and definition. Also boasting minimal noise, they'll keep your sound clean, fresh, and clear – ideal for writing groundbreaking basslines.
The Noiseless Jazz Bass pickup in the bridge is one of a kind. It has a smooth midrange and bright, punchy tone, helping to push your bass to the front of the mix. With the characteristics of a classic jazz bass, but without the unwanted noise, it will make your music shine. And the Player Plus Noiseless pickup in the middle only builds on this. It has a sweet, clear high end to help crispen your basslines, and gives you a bold, vintage sound. These pickups will help you unlock your creativity like never before.
Your tone, your way. There's a host of control dials sitting under the bridge which let you change your sound on the fly. The responsive three-band EQ section lets you dial in your frequencies to get the bass voicing you've always dreamed of. Whether you want to boost the midrange for more punch, the low end for more boom, or the high end for crispness – you can do so instantly. And there's an active/passive mini toggle for changing between circuits – you can experiment to your heart's content.
Take your fingers for a ride. Some woods are naturally perfect for bass. Maple is one of them, and it makes up the neck on this powerful specimen. Boasting a sleek satin urethane finish, you'll find that your hand can manoeuvre with superb agility all the way along the fretboard, fully freeing up your playing. The bright, punchy resonance created when the maple vibrates also lends itself to your sound, adding crunch and definition. A pau ferro fretboard completes the show, offering beautiful sustain and injecting each note you pay with warmth and richness. There's nothing holding you back from playing to perfection.
