With modern style, flexible tone and incomparable value, the Jackson X Series Spectra Bass SBX IV takes the adventurous player on a bold bass odyssey, launching a commanding entry in Jackson's formidable neckthroughbody bass lineup.
The offset Spectra Bass body style was innovatively designed with the gigging musician in mind. Its nyatoh body has a larger upper horn that evenly distributes weight throughout the instrument for perfect balance and playing comfort. The graphitereinforced throughbody maple neck with scarf joint creates formidable sustain, with a speed neck contour, 12"16" compound radius laurel fingerboard and 24 jumbo frets for superior playability.
The SBX IV provides a fullsonic spectrum for even the most versatile and progressive bassists. Dual passive mediumoutput humbucking pickups create a dynamic foundation with punch, power and note articulation. Wideranging tonal command comes from a twoway toggle switch for pickup coil splitting, 3band active EQ, blend control and volume control with push/pull selector to bypass or engage active circuit for the 3band EQ. The push/pull selector eliminates the risk of losing sound due to a dead battery. A quick pull on the volume knob bypasses the active circuit, making it easy to regain sound from the bass without the use of battery power.
This fourstring bass also features a HiMass hardtail bridge that enhances sustain and improves attack.
Featuring a unique 2x2 black headstock with an understated "J" logo, the budgetfriendly SBX IV comes in stageconquering finishes including Gloss Black or Matte Army Drab with black hardware.
