Vintage VJ74 Reissued Maple Fingerboard Bass Natural Ash Left Hand

  
The left hand Vintage VJ74 Re-Issued Series bass has a reputation as a workhorse bass guitar with professional, semi-professional and bass players around the world who just love its defined sound and playability. Solid alder is the perfect choice for the body, not only to support the solid construction, but for this popular tonewoods ability to distribute an equally fine balance of high, mid and low frequencies, delivered uncoloured to a pair of Wilkinson WOJB single coil pickups which enhance this tight, piano-like tone, with extended clarity and articulation. Pair alder with the VJ74s bolt-on, hard rock maple neck and you know you just cant go wrong for rocky-blues bass, or, just wind the tone control back a tad and enter a whole new world of jazzy, mellow soothing bass lines.
