PRESS RELEASE

Jazz Bass 24

June 20, 2008

Launched in 2005, the original Jazz Bass 24 features a striking quilt maple top in a beautiful Tobacco Sunburst finish. New for 2008 is a stealthy flat-black version with black hardware and a matching head cap that sounds as powerful as it looks. The 24-fret maple neck and rosewood fingerboard put two full octaves at the disposal of adventurous bassists, and the twin Seymour Duncan® Basslines™ pickups deliver everything from whisper to rumble to roar. Other special features include Hipshot®-licensed tuning machines, active electronics with "slap" mid-scoop switch, a push/pull volume for switching the electronics (active/passive) and a high-mass top-loading bridge. Sounds and feels as gorgeous as it looks!
