Flexible Bass in a classic design
With the unbeatably affordable J & D PBJ Vintage White, J & D targets those looking for an affordable E-Bass with high quality and versatile sound. While the classic design with basswood body and C-shaped maple neck promises comfortable playing characteristics for the first grooves, the PJ pickup setup with classic passive switching ensures multi-faceted tone colors. Indestructible Hardware in the form of a 4-saddle bridge and open bass tuners in the Vintage-Style completes the PBJ Vintage White Bass from J & D.
Best of both Worlds: With a split coil and a single coil pickup, the J & D PBJ Vintage White electric bass covers a wide spectrum of sounds.
Classically built Bass with high playing comfort
For the construction of the PBJ E-Bass, J & D relies on a traditional bass design and a classic wood combination. While the linden body convinces with a perfect balance on the bass strap as well as on the thigh, the bolt-on maple neck sits comfortably in the hand thanks to the not-too-big C-profile, so that the first bass lines can be implemented with ease on the rosewood fingerboard.
PJ pickup setup for flexible sounds.
Equipped with a PJ pickup set consisting of a split coil pickup in the middle position and a single coilpickup at the bridge, the PBJ Vintage White Bass combines the sound character of the greatest bass classics in one instrument. Here, the split coil delivers a rich bass foundation that presses into the pit of your stomach with aggressive growl, while the single coil makes itself heard with high transparency and strong mids even in the densest band sound. In addition to a 3-way switch for pickup selection, the bass guitar comes with volume and tone controls for adjusting the sound.
Indestructible hardware equipment
Last but not least, J & D completes the PBJ Vintage White electric bass with indestructible vintage-style Hardware. With four individually adjustable barrel stringers, the 4-saddle bridge on the body guarantees optimal intonation and string action adjustment. On the headstock, classic bass tuners with open gears also ensure accurate and particularly robust tuning of the bass guitar.
This is now the third J&D bass Ive bought, they are simply superb for the money, properly setup youll struggle to find a better bass for 10x the money, they are simply that well made!!
Ive had 2 J&D j basses previously, stripped the frets and coated in epoxy for a great fretless, get a set of bartolini j bass pickups and you have a dream bass for £200.

Ok bass guitar. Frets are badly finished, but otherwise Ok. Sounds good and the neck was easy to set up properly. I got the action quite nice after waiting few weeks for the neck to settle. This bass is definitely worth the price.

Great quality, very well constructed. Easily compared to a 300 euros brand name bass, but 3 times cheaper! Nice finish, rich sound unplugged. The pickups are not great, but ok. I might change them later. Very satisfied for the money paid.
