Brimming with energy, this active Jazz Bass delivers your tone with force and precision perfectly articulating every single nuance of your performance. Powered through a 9v battery these pickups can emit your sound with a higher level of distortion, while removing any interfering feedback. When used in combination with intuitive controls for volume, pickup, blend, traditional tone and stability, which makes the sound of this bass fully customisable.
Built for precision and accuracy, the Contemporary Active Jazz Bass delivers on the expectations of the modern bassist. A fantastic “C” shaped maple neck ensures a comfortable grasp whilst also making sure that you have enough freedom to fly to and from each extreme of the fretboard. Of course, that brings us onto the maple fretboard, which delivers a silky-smooth surface to traverse with accuracy and precision. A wonderful experience, you will be able to play this bass for hours without stress or strain.
Constructed from poplar, a wood which is known to have excellent tonal qualities, you can be assured that the instrument offers coverage over every frequency range. A tight low end lets notes ring with precision while still holding that boom that makes your heart shudder. This is without the benefit of a rounded mid-range and sufficient highs to ensure harmonics are perfectly preserved. Styled into a classic Jazz Bass shape, you could say this is a modern classic.
