The shorter scale length is no slouch when it comes to tone either.
The one piece Maple neck with its Maple fretboard feels smooth and comfy.
The Jackson JS Concert Bass Minion SD1XM punches well above its weight delivering powerful tone from a small package.
The Classic P/J pickup configuration
The PJ (Precision and Jazz Bass) pickup configuration is arguably the most popular on the planet and with good reason. Each pickup has its own volume control and the master tone control is there should you want to dial in some “warm and woody”.
Plenty of balanced, deep tone radiates from the Jackson Precision Bass style neck pickup, while the Jackson Jazz bass style bridge pickup works double-time by eliminating hum and delivering punchy tone note after note. Dial-in your sound with a pair of volume knobs and a single tone knob, and enjoy greater note sustain from the hardtail bridge with black base plate.
Offering unbridled versatility and a wide range of tonal possibilities, whether in the studio or onstage, you can choose the best of both pickups to dial in your perfect sound. From the punchy clarity of the J-style bass to the deep presence of the P-Style pickups, you’ll have all basses covered here.
