JacksonX Series Spectra Bass SBXP IV Desert Sand
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Spectra Bass SBXP IV pairs an offset poplar body with a larger upper horn intended to distribute the instrument's weight for balance and comfort. Its graphite-reinforced through-body maple neck is described as providing sustain, and the bass uses dual passive, medium-output humbuckers for punch, power, and note articulation. A HiMass hardtail bridge further supports sustain and note attack. Desert Sand, a matching 2x2 headstock, and black hardware give this four-string model its visual identity.
Strong match
Who this is for
