Product Detail
The Jackson X Series Spectra Bass SBX IV is a game - changer for adventurous bass players. With its modern style, flexible tone, and amazing value, it's set to take you on a thrilling bass journey and is a great addition to Jackson’s neck - through - body bass lineup. The offset Spectra Bass body, crafted from nyatoh, has a larger upper horn. This design evenly distributes weight, ensuring perfect balance and ultimate playing comfort. The graphite - reinforced through - body maple neck with a scarf joint offers excellent sustain. Its speed neck contour, 12' - 16' compound radius laurel fingerboard, and 24 jumbo frets make it a dream to play. For versatile bassists, the SBX IV provides a full sonic range. Dual passive medium - output humbucking pickups offer punch, power, and clear note articulation. You have wide - ranging tonal control with a two - way toggle switch for coil splitting, 3 - band active EQ, blend control, and a volume control with a push/pull selector. This selector lets you bypass or engage the active circuit for the 3 - band EQ and avoids sound loss due to a dead battery. Just pull the volume knob, and you can get sound without battery power. The four - string bass features a HiMass™ hardtail bridge for enhanced sustain and better attack.

Using your Jackson X Series Spectra IV Bass Guitar is a breeze. First, tune your bass using the Jackson® Sealed Die - Cast tuning machines. You can adjust the sound to your liking with the volume control, blend control, and 3 - band EQ. The two - way toggle switch allows you to split the pickup coils for different tones. If the battery for the active EQ runs out, just pull the volume knob to bypass the active circuit and keep playing. When it comes to maintenance, keep your bass in a dry and cool place. Use a soft cloth to wipe it down after each use. Check the strings regularly for wear and replace them when needed. You can use the included saddle height wrench and truss rod wrench for adjustments. If you're unsure about any adjustments, it's best to consult a professional.
