Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Custom Shop 1965 Jazz Bass combines a two-piece select alder body, quartersawn maple neck, and 3A rosewood fingerboard in a Faded Inca Silver Journeyman Relic finish. Two hand-wound vintage-style Jazz Bass pickups give the bridge position tight lows and clear highs, while the neck pickup brings rounded warmth and midrange. Independent volume controls let you balance the pickups before shaping the result with the master tone. The 1960 U neck profile, 34-inch scale, and 20 frets define its playing layout.
