With modern style, flexible tone, and outstanding value, the Jackson X Series Spectra Bass SBX IV is built for the adventurous player. This bold entry in Jackson’s neck-through-body lineup delivers commanding presence, comfort, and powerful tone.
The offset Spectra Bass body features either poplar or nyatoh with an extended upper horn for improved balance. A graphite-reinforced through-body maple neck with scarf joint ensures formidable sustain, while the speed neck contour, 12"-16" compound-radius laurel fingerboard, and 24 jumbo frets offer superior playability.
Dual passive medium-output humbuckers provide punchy, articulate tone, supported by coil-splitting, a 3-band active EQ, blend control, and a push/pull volume selector to bypass the active circuit. This allows seamless recovery of sound even with a dead battery. A HiMass hardtail bridge further enhances sustain and attack.
With its distinctive 2x2 headstock and finishes like Neon Orange and Satin Graphite, the SBX IV delivers both performance and stage-ready style at an exceptional price.
