Booming bass power. An easy playing action. And a stunning price that means you get amazing features - at a figure that's affordable. The Jackson JS1X CB Minion Bass AM is perfect for both beginners looking for an instrument to hone their skills on, and seasoned musicians searching for a compact, hassle-free solution to taking a bass out on the road.
That's because its smaller scale size makes it both simple to transport, and comfortable to get your hands around. So playing fast riffs, licks, and chords is made easier than ever. Plus, it sounds awesome. A combination of a jazz bass pickup in the bridge and a precision bass pickup in the neck delivers a huge range of different tones. So it's perfect for any genre. And they're powerful - you'll always hear your basslines loud and clear. Not to mention, it looks good. Really good. A striking black finish and jagged sharktooth inlays add an extra touch of coolness to this remarkable bass. A steal.
The bass guitar can be a difficult instrument to get to grips with. Due to its large size and long scale, it can be particularly daunting for new players looking to hone their skills. The Jackson JS1X CB Minion is the solution. It's got a short scale length, which makes getting your hands around it easy. Basslines and riffs will flow effortlessly from your fingertips. And slick maple wood used for the neck feels smooth in your hand, reducing friction and allowing you to glide from the bottom to the top of the fretboard without difficulty. Playing has never felt so natural.
