Overview

Folks, allow me to present a brand-new "JB-1 J-Offset 5-String Bass Guitar." It retails at less than RM1K, and is manufactured by Philippines-based JCraft Guitars. Key features include a gloss white offset contoured poplar body, 34" scale maple neck, vintage-style bridge, open gear tuners, two single-coil pickups, and a two volume/master tone control layout. Yes, this is what you'd find on a typical J-style bass - nothing out of the ordinary. In subsequent posts, we'll be scrutinizing the neck, fretboard, hardware and electronics on this JB-1. Meanwhile, here are some pics for your viewing pleasure.
