Description

Take your sound and style to bold new heights with the Jackson X Series Spectra Bass SBXQ V. This innovative 5-string bass is crafted for the adventurous bassist, ready to push boundaries on stage and in the studio. With its dynamic design and exceptional tonal versatility, the SBXQ V isn’t just an instrument; it’s your ultimate creative partner.

The offset Spectra Bass body, made of poplar with a stunning quilt maple top, is as functional as it is stylish. With a larger upper horn, the body is designed for perfect balance and all-day playing comfort, making it ideal for gigging musicians. The through-body maple neck, reinforced with graphite and featuring a scarf joint for maximum durability, ensures powerful sustain and effortless playability with its 12"-16" compound radius bound laurel fingerboard and 24 jumbo frets.

This bass offers more than looks, though. The dual passive medium-output humbuckers deliver a full sonic spectrum filled with punch, power, and precision. Gain complete control of your tone with a 3-band active EQ, blend control, coil-splitting toggle switch, and push/pull volume selector, which allows you to go from active to passive mode in seconds. With these features, you never have to worry about losing sound due to a dead battery—your performance has a failsafe.

Set at a budget-friendly price, the Jackson HiMass™ hardtail bridge enhances sustain and sharpens note attack, while sealed die-cast tuners ensure stable tuning across your most intense sets. Finished in an attention-grabbing Transparent Black Burst with a 3x2 color-matched headstock, black hardware, and the understated “J” logo, the SBXQ V delivers stage presence to match its powerful sound. Whether you're laying down groove-heavy basslines or jumping into complex solos, this bass is your ticket to sonic adventure.

Key Features:

  • 35"-scale, 5-string bass for extended tonal range
  • Poplar body with a rippling quilt maple top for a striking aesthetic
  • Through-body maple neck with graphite reinforcement and scarf joint for durability and sustain
  • 12"-16" compound radius bound laurel fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets for enhanced playability

  • Push/pull volume selector for quick switch between active and passive modes
