Premium 2018 USA G&L JB Bass – Vintage White with Matching Headstock & Upgraded Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound Pickups
Description
For the discerning player who demands timeless style backed by modern high-output performance, this 2018 USA-made G&L JB Bass is an absolute powerhouse. Meticulously crafted in Fullerton, California, this instrument represents Leo Fender’s ultimate refinement of the classic dual-single-coil platform, now upgraded for maximum sonic impact.
This bass features a stunning Vintage White finish perfectly paired with a rare, factory-matching painted headstock and a classic 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard. The aesthetic is purely sophisticated, offering a sleek, premium look that commands attention on any stage.
The defining upgrade on this particular JB Bass is a professional set of Seymour Duncan Quarter Poundâ„¢ single-coil pickups. Equipped with oversized quarter-inch diameter alnico 5 rod magnets, these pickups transform the traditional jazz platform into a high-output beast. They deliver a massive, punchy midrange, aggressive growl, and a powerful low-end response while maintaining the articulate clarity and top-end definition you expect from a premium jazz bass. Whether you are cutting through a dense live mix or laying down pristine tracks in the studio, these pickups provide an incredible tonal edge.
In addition to its premium electronics, the bass features Leo Fender's revolutionary Saddle-Lockâ„¢ bridge. By locking the saddles together and anchoring the bridge directly into the body wood, it drastically increases string-to-body resonance and sustain. Paired with a slim, fast-playing hard-rock maple neck and a gorgeous, dark fingerboard, this instrument offers effortless playability, flawless intonation, and rock-solid tuning stability via custom G&L Ultra-Lite tuners.
