This instrument is from the \"XJ\" series, which is assembled in Japan. Based on the familiar, traditional electric bass sound that is often requested not only by bassists but also in live performances, it is made with a modern approach that also features versatile controls to suit a wide range of uses, good playability that responds to any playing style, and excellent durability. Furthermore, it is known as a high-quality instrument, with woodworking done in one of Japan's leading workshops, assembly by dedicated builders, and high-quality setup and quality control using PLEK, and is truly the \"best tool\" for making music, and has received much praise from professionals and amateurs both domestically and internationally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This instrument is a traditional 60s JB bass style 5-string model, featuring an alder body, maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard. The rich tone, with its thick, fat alder low-mids and glossy high-mids, is pleasing to the ear, and it achieves well-balanced articulation down to the low B string. Furthermore, this instrument features optional pickups, specifically \"Raw Vintage Pickups.\" These hand-wired pickups produce a fresh, articulate, and warm tone, delivering a rich sound even in passive mode.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The preamp that characterizes this brand's basses features an original Tri-logic active preamp designed to minimize tonal changes while covering a full range of boost. The diverse controls may seem complicated at first glance, but each one is precisely intended to support the player in creating a solid sound. Furthermore, attention has been paid to the hardware, with the use of the highly regarded Hipshot Ultralight tuners and a custom brass \"Xotic Bridge,\" resulting in excellent sound quality and a level of playability that even inspires confidence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The two mini switches on the top of the body allow you to switch between the mid-range frequency band (400Hz\/800Hz) and the high-range frequency band (6KHz\/12KHz), which are crucial for the bass sound. Once you get used to them, they are very convenient for making fine adjustments to the blend and thickness of the sound in an ensemble, as well as the tightness of the tone. In addition, there is an active\/passive switch and a switch to series wiring when both pickups are on, and a preamp gain adjustment trim is also provided in the back panel. This instrument has specifications that make it a reliable partner for players in a variety of situations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This brand's basses are designed with the player in mind, down to the smallest details, such as luminous side position markers that are easy to see on stage. This particular model features the brand's signature Black Cherry Metallic finish. It also has a classic poly finish, and the pickups are an upcharge option. This bass boasts impeccable craftsmanship, functional beauty, and a rich sound that you can truly enjoy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Weight: ≈4.69kg\u003cbr\u003e S\/N: #3784\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [plek data\/1st:1.74mm, 2nd:1.87mm, 3rd:2.00mm, 4th:2.09mm, 5th:2.19mm]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck: Maple\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e Fret: Jescar 47104 - 22 Frets\u003cbr\u003e Scale: 34 inches\u003cbr\u003e Body: Alder\u003cbr\u003e Finish: Poly Finish\u003cbr\u003e Color: Vintage White\u003cbr\u003e Pick Up: Raw Vintage JB pickup\u003cbr\u003e Bridge:Xotic A Type for 5-string\u003cbr\u003e Control: 2 Volume 1 Tone and 3 Band EQ (Xotic Preamp) and Mid \/ Bright Switch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Gig bag included","brand":"Xotic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68048860545137,"sku":"871544","price":2850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/871544_01.jpg?v=1793500919","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/es\/products\/871544","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
