Frequently Asked Questions
The passive mode delivers a more traditional, slightly darker J Bass tone, while active adds a bit more clarity and punch with the EQ controls.
The 'Modern C' is a bit slimmer and more uniform than many vintage J Bass necks, offering a more contemporary feel and easier access to higher frets.
The HiMass bridge offers improved sustain and clarity by minimizing unwanted resonance, resulting in a tighter and more focused low-end response.
