[@DanielGarcia-tl6lj]

Best bass Jackson has created. Thanks for the review!

[@daltonbell2907]

I played it in the Music Store and I must say it's definitely the best bass made by Jackson. I was very impressed with the pickups and preamp.

[@RubyDimasStudio]

it is like the Charvel pro dimas bass ( charvel and jackson are the same company )

[@foxmolder818]

Finally! I've been waiting for a demo for this bass. You're literally the first one. No offense though, it'd be great if you can find a killer bass player to demo them.

[@tarpley-music]

Definitely agree there are better bass players out there, but finding someone who can play a multitude of instruments, has a personality, and isn't camera shy is very very tough.

[@jamesgmusic]

Agreed 😂 definitely not my main instrument

[@Bantubrotha]

How many 9 volt batteries?

[@sergioacquisti6002]

Is the bass active and passive? thanks for this video

[@tarpley-music]

It is active.

[@derickthomas380]

Nice looking bass however its sounds horrible..swap the pickups for some bartolini pickups and pre amp

[@LennyLenoardson]

Do you have ears ? That work ?
