The H. Jimenez LBQ1GXE-AB Aurora Borealis Bajo Quinto transforms traditional Mexican music with mesmerizing visual and sonic excellence. This professional-grade instrument features a solid spruce top with a revolutionary color-changing sparkle finish that shifts from purple to blue as you move, creating a captivating visual experience that matches its superior sound quality. Equipped with a bajo-voiced active Fishman RareEarth pickup, this celestial-inspired instrument delivers powerful, authentic tone for both acoustic sessions and amplified performances.
Product OverviewThe LBQ1GXE-AB Aurora Borealis showcases H. Jimenez's artistic innovation as the crown jewel of the exclusive Colección de Galaxia series. The solid spruce top, featuring a unique color-changing finish that appears as a sophisticated glossy black tint from a distance but reveals mesmerizing purple-blue sparkles up close in the light, provides excellent projection and articulation. This remarkable finish undulates between purple and blue hues with player movement, creating a dynamic visual effect that's as captivating as the instrument's sound. This is complemented by mahogany back and sides that add warmth and tonal depth to every note, while custom spruce bracing designed by Hilario "Layo" Jimenez ensures superior resonance throughout the frequency range.
The comfortable mahogany neck features a smooth profile with an adjustable truss rod for personalized playability, paired with a sonorous walnut fingerboard adorned with elegant moon phase inlays. The deep Florentine cutaway provides unrestricted access to all 21 frets, enabling complex runs and chord voicings across the entire fretboard. Premium black individual tuning machines deliver precise, stable tuning even during the most demanding performances.
What truly elevates the Aurora Borealis to professional status is its custom-voiced Fishman RareEarth pickup system. Specifically engineered to capture the bajo quinto's distinctive tonal characteristics, this active electronics system with convenient volume control ensures that your amplified sound remains authentic and balanced across all ten strings, making this instrument equally at home on stage, in the studio, or in acoustic settings.
