Jackson JS2 Concert Bass AH Satin Black — Modern Humbucker Tone at an Accessible Price

The Jackson JS2 Concert Bass AH Satin Black is a 34"-scale four-string built for rock and metal bassists who want a punchy humbucker voice without flagship pricing. A lightweight poplar body pairs with a bolt-on maple neck and an amaranth fingerboard, while dual Jackson high-output humbucking pickups deliver the thick low-end growl the brand is known for. This model suits players who want a fast neck and a sustain-rich tone in a sub-€300 instrument.

What Sets This Bass Apart

Two design choices lift this model above typical entry-level humbuckers. The 12"-16" compound radius amaranth fingerboard gradually flattens from 305 mm at the nut to 406 mm at the heel, so chording feels natural up top while bends stay clean higher up. Anchoring the strings, the Jackson HiMass bridge uses a heavy mass that improves sustain and adds a bolder fundamental.

Poplar Body and Bolt-On Neck — Lightweight and Stable

Poplar is a medium-light tonewood prized for balanced mids and a supportive low end. A bolt-on maple neck with graphite reinforcement and a scarf joint keeps the instrument stable under string tension, while the dual-action truss rod allows precise relief adjustment for drop tunings.

• Body Material: Poplar — balanced mids and light weight for long sets
• Construction: Bolt-on with scarf joint and graphite reinforcement — stable under heavy string tension
• Matte Satin Black finish features a non-reflective surface designed to keep handling marks invisible on stage.

Compound Radius Fingerboard — Comfortable Chording, Clean Bending

The maple neck carries a 24-fret amaranth fingerboard with pearloid sharkfin inlays. Rounded at the lower frets for chord work, the compound radius flattens out for tapping and aggressive bends higher up.

• Scale Length: 864 mm (34") — standard long scale for tight, focused low end
• Fingerboard Radius: 305–406 mm compound — rounded at the nut, flat at the heel
• Nut Width of 42 mm — comfortable for both pick and fingerstyle players
• Frets: 24 jumbo — extra room for upper-register playing

Dual Humbuckers and HiMass Bridge — Modern Rock Bass Voice

Two Jackson covered high-output humbucking pickups sit in the neck and bridge positions, voiced for fat, punchy lows without excessive top-end sizzle. The passive circuit routes through two volume controls and a master tone — no battery required.

• Pickup Configuration: HH — thick, noise-free output for rock and metal
• Controls: Volume 1, Volume 2, Master Tone — passive electronics
• Jackson HiMass bridge — heavier mass for improved sustain and bolder tone
• Tuning Machines: Jackson sealed die-cast — reliable tuning stability

Who Should Buy This Bass

Beginner and intermediate bassists stepping into rock, metal, or hard rock will find this model hits the sweet spot for humbucker-driven tone at an accessible price. Players moving up from a single-coil Precision or Jazz bass will hear an immediate shift toward deeper, more aggressive low end — the kind of growl that sits forward in a mix without needing pedals. It also suits gigging musicians who need a dependable backup bass with a stealth matte-black stage look. Pair it with a dedicated bass combo amp for the full low-end response.

Jackson — A Legacy of Pointed Headstocks and Heavy Tones

Jackson guitars built their reputation around 1980s shredding and metal, designing instruments for the era's leading rock bassists. The pointed 4-in-line headstock and sharkfin inlays have become visual shorthand for high-gain rock tone. Bringing that DNA into the affordable tier, the JS Series provides a four-string instrument designed for working players.
