The Mayones Jabba Custom EP 5 Natural High Gloss is a noble bass featuring high-quality woods, great playability and first-class sound.
The Mayones Jabba Custom's swamp ash body and maple neck are connected with six screws.
A select choice of wood for the Mayones Jabba Custom
The Mayones Mayones Jabba Custom EP 5 Natural High Gloss is made from only the most carefully selected woods of the highest quality, which skilfully support a lively sound image with clean reproduction of every string. Therefore, this electric bass features a swamp ash body which carries a poplar burl top with wengé veneer, whereas the sixfold bolt-on maple neck is fitted with a pau ferro fretboard. The comfortable "C" neck profile and the flat 20" fretboard radius (508 mm) offer great playability, making every groove come alive with ease.
Two Aguilar 5J-70 single-coils with Alnico V magnets in combination with the active Mayones 3-band EQ promise a particularly versatile sound spectrum.
Aguilar pickups and an active 3-band EQ
Two Aguilar AG 5J-70 single-coil pickups equipped with Alnico-V magnets and specially tuned coils convince with a bright, cleanly articulated sound image that integrates the low B-string powerfully and harmoniously into the sound. To further customize the sound, the Mayones Mayo M-BP3 3-band active EQ provides EQ for bass and treble on a double pot in addition to the mids control. Furthermore, the equalizer can be switched to passive mode with separate treble control using a mini-switch.
Five lightweight Hipshot Ultralite tuners not only counteract top-heaviness, but also guarantee stable and precise tuning.
Indestructible hardware components
The Mayones Big Foot bridge supports the sustain and the even reproduction of all strings thanks to its solid construction, whereas its five string saddles guarantee optimal adjustment of intonation and string position. From the bridge, the strings run towards the headstock, where five lightweight Hipshot Ultralite tuners not only guarantee precise tuning, but also counteract top-heaviness. The scale length is 34.25" (870 mm). Schaller S-Locks hold the electric bass securely on the strap.
