Shortscale electric bass with two single-coil pickups
Small all-rounder at an affordable price
The J & D JB Mini Sunburst with its 29" short scale length (737 mm) and the outstanding price-performance ratio is suitable for beginners as well as advanced musicians looking for an instrument that is comfortable to play. Besides a solid alder body, the practical Bass features a maple neck and two single-coil pickups with passive electronics.
The J & D JB Mini Sunburst is a handy shortscale electric bass with optimal playing characteristics for beginners and a versatile sound spectrum.
Also on the Mini JB, single coil pickups in the middle and at the bridge provide a diverse sound spectrum.
Two single-coils for versatile sounds
The two single-coil pickups of the JB Mini cover a wide sound spectrum at the bass amp. The neck pickup convinces with fat rock sounds, but also delivers authentic reggae sounds when the tone control is turned down, while the bridge pickup ensures a high assertiveness with modern brilliance. In combination, both pickups show their strengths and convince with countless sounds between jazz and slap-attack.
Four screws securely connect the JB Mini's comfortable maple neck to the solid alder body.
Comfortable playing characteristics, solid woods
The 29" short scale length (737 mm) and the C-profile of the slim neck guarantee extremely comfortable playability of this full-fledged bass, which especially suits beginners and bassists with small hands and allows fatigue-free Bass playing. The solid alder body is not a matter of course in this price range and gives the JB Mini Sunburst from J & D in combination with the bolt-on maple neck a nimble Attack and even sustain.
Vintage-style open tuners provide unshakable tuning stability.
Indestructible hardware
Indestructible hardware, whose unshakable reliability guarantees long-lasting playing pleasure, rounds off the coherent overall package of the J & D JB Mini. In addition to the vintage-style bridge with four adjustable barrel tailpieces, the E-Bass is equipped with open vintage tuners for smooth tuning and high tuning stability.
