  • And once again Jackson tries the Concert bass

    Crafted with the demands of the discernible player in mind, Jackson guitars give you the shapes, finishes and tones you love. From the venerable Rhoads, Soloist, Warrior and more, shop Jackson for the highest performance.



    Here's hoping they fare better this time around

    Concert V looks nice.

      Is this like the JS series of guitars they sell at Guitarget?
      I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

        He briefly mentions the X-series version - Isn't this just the CMG still shown on the main site?

          UNTIL they make a lefty version, I'm keeping my money at home.
          I guess they call them JS series now since the CMG was MIJ and these new ones arent.
          nice that they now brought back the 5string version, but the 4stringers are still CMG's.

            Why why??? Jackson had to make these JS-series? Now the bodywoods are Indian Cedro instead of some tonewood. I may consider the Five stringer. Also I prefer the classic P/J setup.

              Cedro is a tonewood.

                It would be nice if they would provide more info on these, like release dates, pricing etc

                      As for why they bumped them down to the JS series, perhaps it was to promote sales? Maybe a last-gasp before ditching basses altogether for another 5-10 years?

                              Dave Ellefson models are on the web site. It says Custom Shop Limited Run instead of X-series. Are they going to bring cheaper Ellefson models too?
