Overview

Versatile 5-string bass designed for today's pro bassist.

The X Series Spectra Bass SBXQ V from Jackson delivers modern style, flexible tone and incomparable value with a design that’s made for today’s pro bassist. An offset poplar body features a larger upper horn that evenly distributes weight throughout the instrument for balance and comfort. Dual passive medium-output humbucking pickups create a dynamic foundation with fantastic punch, growling power and clear note articulation while wide-ranging tonal command comes from a two-way toggle switch for pickup coil splitting. This five-string, 35"-scale bass also features a HiMass hardtail bridge that enhances sustain and improves note attack. Budget friendly and loaded with value, the X Series Spectra Bass SBXQ V comes in stage-conquering Transparent Black Burst with a unique 3x2 color matched headstock with understated “J” logo and black hardware.
