A Powerfully Playable Bass

Become a low-frequency fiend with the Jackson JS3 Concert Bass! The JS3 Concert Bass packs plenty of punch and sleek looks too with its Indian Cedro body and oiled maple neck (with ivory binding!). You'll own the rhythm section when you plug in - the JS3 Concert Bass comes equipped with two Jackson humbucking pickups, ready for you to dial in your ideal tone. And for a commanding feel, the Indian Rosewood fingerboard features a 12"-16" compound radius for effortless playability. If you're looking for a seriously playable bass at a great value, look no further than the Jackson JS3 Concert Bass.



Jackson JS3 Concert Bass at a Glance:
  • Jackson quality
  • Compound radius fingerboard
  • Powerful electronics


Jackson Quality:
Jackson's JS series represents the best of Jackson's 30 years of axe-pertise, and the JS3 Concert Bass is no exception. You get killer tonewoods, high-output electronics, and a compound radius fingerboard, all at a price that belies its performance. And when you get on stage with this bass-beast in your hands, everyone will know you're playing a Jackson thanks to the iconic sharkfin inlays and tilt-back headstock.

Compound Radius Fretboard:
The JS3 Concert Bass features a 12"-16" compound radius fretboard for ultimate playability. The Indian Rosewood fingerboard is rounder near the nut for easy rhythm playing. As your playing heats up and moves up the fretboard, the radius flattens out for easier runs and big, big string bends. With a neck that plays this slick, you'll be up at the 24th fret before you know it.

Powerful Electronics:
Jackson stocks the JS3 Concert Bass with two high-output humbucking pickups, positioned to capture the fullest tone possible. You can sculpt your tone any way you see fit with the bass, mid, and treble tone controls. Whether you're recording some mellow RnB or trying to cut through a speed-metal mix onstage, the JS3 Concert Bass has the tone-shaping power you need.

Jackson JS3 Concert Bass Features:
  • Color: Transparent Black
  • Jackson quality and playability at an incredibly low price
  • Solid Indian Cedro body for thick tone and smooth sustain
  • Compound radius fretboard lets you play faster and smoother
  • Dual humbucking pickups capture the full-range tone
  • Bass, Mid, and Treble tone controls give you powerful tone-sculpting potential

I am very happy with the product and service I received. I have yet to experience such personalized service from audio/music companies in my hometown. I will certainly make more purchases from Sweetwater again. If you have the product I need, I will purchase it from Sweetwater. The service is exceptional. I have never been treated with such thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly service from any of the music companies located in Saint Louis, MO.

Outstanding value for incredible tone!

by Eric Getman from United States
January 19, 2012
Music Background: 20+ yrs in bar bands mostly eighties rock
I have to start with the neck. This is hard to explain but it has made me a better player. I have less hand strain and improved speed. this neck is thin and flat at the twelfth fret. The string spacin... read more [+]g is perfect for me. The action and intonation were both perfect when I received this bass. All of this being said I would have been happy but the tones that i can get are amazing. I am playing a Gk 700rb head thru a 4x10 cab with no tweeters( the amp is a bi-amp head) and i didnt have to mess with anything. Everything sounds good from Megadeath to the Allman Brothers just with the controls on the Guitar. close [-]
