Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Jackson’s SBXQ IV is a four-string Spectra Bass with a poplar body, maple top, and dual passive humbuckers. Its coil-splitting toggle expands the pickup options, while master volume, blend, and 3-band EQ controls keep adjustments close at hand. The graphite-reinforced maple neck uses a scarf joint, and the bass carries 24 jumbo frets across a 34-inch scale. An Amber Blue Burst finish, matching 2x2 headstock, and black hardware complete the presentation.
