And for a commanding feel, the Jackson Speed Neck is topped with a smooth compound-radius laurel fingerboard and jumbo frets for effortless playability.

Compound-radius fingerboard for ultimate playability
The JS Series Spectra Bass JS3QV features a 12–16-inch compound-radius fingerboard for ultimate playability. The laurel 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.
Powerful electronics let you tweak your tone to perfection
Jackson stocks the JS Series Spectra Bass JS3QV with two passive humbucking pickups, positioned to capture the fullest tone possible. With coil splitting and 3-band active EQ, you can sculpt your tone any way you see fit. Whether you’re recording soulful R&B or trying to cut through a speed-metal mix onstage, the Spectra Bass JS3QV has the tone-shaping power you need. And the active electronics provide plenty of output to drive longer cable runs, your effects chain, and your amp.
Built with unbeatable Jackson quality
Jackson’s JS series incorporates Jackson’s three-plus decades of instrument-building expertise, and the Spectra Bass JS3QV is no exception. You get resonant tonewoods, high-output electronics, and a fast neck with a silky smooth fingerboard, all at a price that belies its performance. Many guitarists and bassists at Sweetwater (and worldwide) are fiercely loyal Jackson players. Check out the JS Series Spectra Bass JS3QV and you’ll know why.
