Compound-radius fingerboard for ultimate playability
The SBXQ IV 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 SBXQ IV with two medium-output active humbucking pickups, positioned to capture the fullest tone possible. With coil splitting and 3-band 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 SBXQ IV has the tone shaping power you need. Plus, the active electronics provide plenty of output to drive long cable runs, your effects chain, and your amp.
Built with unbeatable Jackson quality
Jackson's X Series incorporates Jackson's three-plus decades of instrument-building expertise, and the SBXQ IV 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 across the globe — are fiercely loyal Jackson players. Check out the SBXQ IV and you'll know why.
