Business will always be good with the Jackson USA Signature David Ellefson Concert Bass CB IV! A classic double-cutaway alder body provides a solid, balanced tone while enabling easy upper fret access. EMG active humbuckers deliver crystal-clear highs, lucid mids, and growling lows that you can shape to perfection with an active 3-band EQ. The David Ellefson Concert Bass CB IV’s neck-through-body design maximizes comfort and sustain, while graphite reinforcement and a scarf joint ensure rock-solid performance and stability. David’s USA-built signature bass guitar includes an easy-playing compound-radius fingerboard — exactly what David needs to execute technical, hard-hitting thrash metal. The Concert Bass CB IV features a robust HiMass 4-string bridge, super-stable Hipshot locking tuners, and an attention-grabbing “fallout” headstock logo with David’s signature.

Compound-radius fingerboard for ultimate playability
The Jackson USA Signature David Ellefson Concert Bass CB IV’s neck and fingerboard are spec’d to meet the demands of the technical player. Its neck-through-body design maximizes comfort and sustain, while graphite reinforcement and a scarf joint ensure rock-solid performance and stability. This bass’s 12–16-inch compound-radius fingerboard is rounder near the nut for holding down the groove. As you head up to the solo range of the instrument, the radius flattens out for easier runs and string bends.
