Product Description
The Sqoe SJB-658 (Roasted Maple Series) is a professional-grade 5-string bass designed to deliver the iconic jazz bass growl with modern reliability. Its poplar body provides a balanced, punchy tone that is surprisingly lightweight, allowing for comfortable play during long sets. The high-gloss black finish is complemented by a reinforced steel neck plate, ensuring both a sleek look and structural integrity.
The instrument is defined by its Canadian Roasted Maple neck and fingerboard, which offers superior stability against humidity and temperature shifts. The Modern C-shaped neck provides a comfortable grip for the wider 5-string profile, while the 21 medium frets allow for smooth navigation across the 34-inch scale. A spokewheel truss rod is located at the heel of the neck, making it incredibly easy to perform precise neck adjustments on the fly.
Equipped with a set of Sqoe Alnico JB single-coil pickups, the SJB-658 produces a clear, articulate sound that ranges from warm, vintage thumps to bright, aggressive slap tones. The electronics include individual volume controls for each pickup and a master tone knob for precise blending. The 5-saddle bridge provides solid intonation for the low B-string, while the premium open-gear chrome tuners ensure rock-solid tuning stability.
