The MTD Kingston Saratoga NSJ 5 is the latest evolution in modern bass design, unveiled at NAMM 2025. This cutting-edge five-string bass delivers exceptional tone, precision, and playability, making it a must-have for discerning bassists.
Crafted with an alder body and a stunning quilted maple top in a satin blue burst finish, the Saratoga NSJ 5 combines striking aesthetics with balanced resonance. Its 35” scale length, 21-fret maple neck, and carbon fibre reinforcementprovide rock-solid stability and effortless playability, while MTD’s signature asymmetrical neck carve ensures ergonomic comfort.
Equipped with proprietary Bartolini USA series split-coil pickups and a 3-band US preamp, this bass delivers a versatile tonal palette, enhanced by active/passive switching and dual mid-frequency (250Hz/450Hz) selection. The Hipshot tuners, quick-release Kingston bridge, and Buzz Feiten tuning system further refine tuning stability and intonation, making the Saratoga NSJ 5 a powerhouse instrument built for stage and studio alike.
