Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Configured for players who need a Jazz Bass with broad onboard control, the American Ultra II pairs two Noiseless Vintage Jazz Bass pickups with an S-1 active/passive switch. A pan control, 3-band active EQ, passive tone control, and selectable midrange frequency provide several ways to shape the output from the instrument. The select alder body, quartersawn maple Modern D neck, and compound-radius ebony fingerboard form a right-handed, 34-inch-scale bass suited to rehearsals, recording sessions, and live work.

Who this is for
