Product Description

CBX V David Ellefson Signature Electric Bass. Designed in conjunction with one of the founding fathers of thrash metal-highly acclaimed bassist David Ellefson of Megadeth-the 5-string David Ellefson CBX V QS is a beast of a bass. Bearing his personal touches, packed with enormous Jackson sound and the hyper-fast playability required by the fleet-fingered bassist, this instrument is a force to be reckoned with. Redesigned ergonomic contours provide the perfect platform for launching a musical assault-the upper contour provides a comfortably stable anchor for pick or fingerstyle playing alike while the lower contour provides perfect balance when propped on a knee for monitor stands. The Jackson HiMassTM 5-string bridge sharpens your notes'' attack for extra punch and clarity, granting enhanced sustain without significantly altering the bass'' fundamental tone. An earth-shaking pair of EMG HZ40 active humbucking pickups in the neck and bridge positions provide plenty of girth and cut as an active 3-band EQ bolsters their native power, shaping and refining it for maximum impact and versatility. The blend knob allows you to mix the pickups to your taste-add more neck pickup for a touch of warmth, or bring up the bridge pickup for more cut. Designed for highly technical lightspeed playing, the 12''-16'' compound radius rosewood fingerboard flattens out as you move up the neck for increased playing comfort and speedy articulation. This bass proudly displays Jackson''s distinctive style; all-black hardware, including everything from the bridge to the Jackson die-cast sealed tuning machines, durable gloss finish, pearloid sharkfin neck inlays, single ply white neck binding and Jackson''s signature pointed 5-In-Line headstock along with a silver ''Fallout'' logo and Ellefson''s signature embossed on the truss rod cover. Only one instrument is hardcore enough to keep pace with Ellefson''s technically demanding requirements-the Jackson David Ellefson CBX V QS-and now it can be yours.
