Let us introduce you to the Jackson JS3Q Concert Bass Guitar in Trans Black with Amaranth Fretboard.

The Jackson JS3 Concert Bass is an affordable instrument that punches well above its weight.

This 4-string bass has a light poplar body with a beautiful quilt maple top, so can play comfortably and turn heads on stage. Also featuring a bound bolt-on maple neck with 24 jumbo frets and sharkfin inlays, Jackson have provided you with a striking-looking instrument at an affordable price.

Jackson Pickups

A pair of Jackson-designed humbuckers deliver you a potent and full-bodied bass tone with plenty of punch. Combined with a 3-band EQ, you can perfect your bass tone by cutting or boosting certain frequencies so that the sound in your head is made a reality.

Solid Contruction

The JS3 has a light poplar body – a tonewood that delivers a balanced sound which a lot of push in the mid-range. The light weight of the body means you can play through an entire gig without feeling fatigue or strain on your back or shoulders.

The bolt-on neck gives a fast attack and snappy response, so that notes can really cut through in the mix and get heard. The sharkfin inlays are an iconic Jackson look, so you have a sharp and expensive-looking bass for a great price. The HiMass bridge also provides brilliant sustain and clarity, so you can hold onto notes with no sudden decay or loss of tone.

Here's what Jackson say:

Jackson’s JS Series Concert Bass models rock seismic sound, style and affordability.

The four-string Concert Bass JS3Q is a 34”-scale model featuring a lightweight and resonant poplar body with a beautiful quilt maple top, fully bound bolt-on maple neck with graphite reinforcement and scarf joint, and a 12”-16” compound radius Amaranth fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets and classic pearloid sharkfin inlays.

Jackson dual humbucking high-output pickups provide a monstrous low-end growl, while a high mass bridge provides rock-solid stability. Shape and refine your tone with its two volume controls (neck and bridge pickups) and active three-band EQ.

Enjoy superior Jackson tone, value and vibe with the elegant JS3Q in either Cherry Burst or Transparent Black with black hardware and Jackson’s pointed 4-in-line headstock.

Whether used for simple supportive lines or more expressive playing, electric bass guitars are essential for shaping the feel and energy of a track.
