Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The JS3V is a 35-inch-scale, five-string bass with a poplar body, bolt-on graphite-reinforced maple neck, and 24 jumbo frets on a compound-radius amaranth fingerboard. Its two high-output humbucking bass pickups have individual volume controls, allowing you to set their balance before using the active three-band EQ to shape the result. A Jackson HiMass bridge anchors the layout, while Metallic Blue Burst and black hardware give this version its visual identity.
