Product Description
The Sqoe JB5BS-300 is a classic workhorse designed for bassists who need the extended range of a 5-string without sacrificing traditional style. Its basswood body offers a lightweight feel and a balanced tonal profile, finished in a timeless high-gloss black. The double-cutaway shape ensures easy access to the upper register, making it suitable for a wide variety of musical genres from jazz and funk to rock.
The neck is crafted from hard maple and features a matching maple fingerboard, providing a snappy attack and bright high-end clarity that helps the low B-string cut through the mix. With 20 medium jumbo frets and a comfortable C-shaped profile, it offers a smooth playing experience for both fingerstyle and slap techniques. The 34-inch scale length maintains consistent string tension across all five strings for better intonation.
Equipped with two Sqoe JB-style single-coil pickups, the JB5BS-300 delivers the iconic "growl" and midrange punch associated with the world's most famous bass design. The simple yet effective control layout—two volume knobs and one master tone—allows for precise blending of the bridge and neck pickups. Complete with open-gear vintage-style tuners and a top-loading bridge, this bass provides rock-solid tuning stability and easy maintenance.
