This 30-inch, short-scale, slim-carved bass features an alder body with a maple top for lightweight feel and wonderful resonance. The maple neck with hard maple fingerboard is smooth, responsive, and easy on the hand and fingers - ideal for laying down silky lines. And when you are ready to plug in, a pair of Marcus Super PJ Revolution Set pickups deliver sweet low-end tone with a balanced midrange.

Pair of pickups wired for versatile tone
The U5's pair of Marcus Super-PJ Revolution Set pickups is wired for incredible tone. Made with a US-manufactured coil and Alnico V magnets, these pickups let you tap the unique tone from both a precision bass and jazz bass, giving you a wide range of stylistic options. With these pickups, you can dial in the vintage jazz tones of yesteryear as well as the more powerful, punchy precision bass tones. Bass players are incredibly impressed with the versatility of this awesome pickup duo!

Rolled-edge fingerboard makes all the difference!
The shorter scale of the U5 along with the rolled edges of the hard maple fingerboard make this neck incredibly comfortable and fun to play. A fingerboard with its edged rolled means a much smoother feel up and down the neck - no nicks or kinks to hinder or hurt your fingers as they move! In addition, the "C"-shaped profile of this neck sits beautifully in your hand for hours of easy play.
