A drop dead beautiful Bass.
You could argue I'm still in the honeymoon phase with this Bass but as my first, and hopefully only, bass I can say I'm am absolutely satisfied. It sounds and feels amazing, and the color? Rocket Red? Pictures don't do it justice, it's radiant!
The reason I chose this bass over others is looks. I wanted a Ric 4001 but that's a lot of money. The bass really pops with the color, look, and Jackson's headstock.
Also I can see the pickup cover/guard getting in the way with playing but I've found it kind of useful as a rest for my picking hand so I've kept it on. When I do finger strumming, I don't have a much issue with finding an anchor point.
Whole Lotta Bass For The Buck
Jackson really did their homework on this one. Bought this 6 months ago. Pretty much what you'd get if you put a Fender PB&J pickup set in a Rickenbacker. Structurally this thing rings like a bell, and the electronics deliver that resonance to the amp. Plays like butter and plays in tune all the way up the neck. Neck has a squished D profile, and fretboard radius is flatter than standard Fender. Body is smaller and lighter than a Fender. The people who made it must really care because there's real craftsmanship here. Only hickey I could find was a slight thick spot in the finish on the back of the neck. Batteries last a long time. The vintage style pickup cover does nothing but get in the way-took it off about 5 minutes after I played it the first time (same as with old style Fender basses). Stap buttons are oversized-once you get a strap on, it won't be coming off. Easier to put the strap on by taking off the buttons and installing from the bottom, then screwing buttons back on.
Sonically, all of the classic bass sounds are there. Controls take a little time to learn to use, but there are a lot of sounds here.
Love this guitar
This is my first Jackson guitar. It is the third bass guitar that I own. It has quickly become my favorite because it's comfortable to play and can create so many different tones.
