Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For players committed to a five-string Jazz Bass, the American Ultra II Jazz Bass V brings a 34-inch scale, 1.875-inch nut width, and two noiseless Vintage Jazz Bass pickups into one right-handed platform. The pan control blends the pickups, while the S-1 switch moves between active and passive operation. Its onboard 3-band EQ, passive tone control, and selectable midrange frequency give you several adjustment points during recording, rehearsal, or performance. A five-saddle HiMass bridge accommodates through-body or top-load stringing.

- Five-string players who want Jazz Bass pickup blending through a pan control.
