Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Kingston ZX is a five-string fretless electric bass with a 35-inch scale, maple fingerboard, and an asymmetrical maple neck that is thicker on the bass side and thinner on the treble side. Its asymmetric mahogany body carries a burled top in Cherry Burst. Controls cover volume, pickup pan, and treble, mid, and bass EQ, while MTD active wood-covered soapbar pickups and an MTD quick-release bridge complete the hardware. It is a clearly specified extended-range fretless configuration for players who want those particular playing and control choices.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Fretless bass players seeking five strings, a 35-inch scale, and a maple fingerboard.

- Players interested in an asymmetric neck profile with different bass- and treble-side thicknesses.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who require frets on the fingerboard.
