JacksonSpectra Bass JS2 - Snow White
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Finished in Snow White, the Spectra Bass JS2 uses a P-style pickup at the neck and a J-style pickup at the bridge, with a blend control to set their balance. The bridge pickup is described as articulate and defined, while the neck pickup supplies a warmer, fuller low end. Its push/pull volume control bypasses the active circuit when the battery is drained; with that circuit active, the bass-boost control intensifies low frequencies. The four-string platform includes an offset poplar body, bolt-on maple neck, laurel fingerboard, 34-inch scale and 24 jumbo frets.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rehearsal and gig sets where blending P-style and J-style pickup voices is useful.
- Players who want to retain passive operation when the active circuit's battery is drained.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Parts that require more than four strings.
- Buyers who need a case or gig bag included.
