Jackson X Series Spectra Bass SBXQ IV – Amber Blue Burst

The Jackson X Series Spectra Bass SBXQ IV, Amber Blue Burst combines stunning looks, modern performance, and exceptional versatility into a single, stage-ready package. Designed for the adventurous bassist, this four-string powerhouse delivers powerful tone, unmatched balance, and fast playability, making it a go-to instrument for a wide range of musical styles.

Its offset Spectra Bass body crafted from poplar and topped with a striking quilt maple veneer offers both resonance and visual flair. The larger upper horn ensures perfect weight distribution for comfortable playing in any position. The neck-through-body maple neck is reinforced with graphite for rock-solid stability and enhanced sustain, while the 12"-16" compound radius bound laurel fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets gives you effortless playability for both intricate chording and blistering solos.

The SBXQ IV’s dual passive medium-output humbuckers deliver punch, clarity, and articulation, while its 3-band active EQ, coil-splitting toggle, and active/passive push-pull volume control provide a massive tonal range. Switch from active to passive instantly if your battery runs out, ensuring your performance never misses a beat. A Jackson HiMass™ hardtail bridge boosts sustain and improves note attack, and sealed die-cast tuners keep your strings locked in tune no matter how hard you play.

With its bold Amber Blue Burst finish, matching 2x2 headstock, and sleek black hardware, the Jackson X Series Spectra Bass SBXQ IV looks every bit as commanding as it sounds.
